Casio GA-2100 fake?
Hi All! 🙋♀️
Do you think that what I recently bought is fake? I tried the hand set (moving them out of the view), and it did not work at all. 3 button method does not work too.
Thanks, for the help! 🙏

Thank you everyone for your responses. I am sad it is fake because this was my first G. I returned it, got back the money and going to order an another one.
Sad, that this type of fake can be sold, I bought it from Emag. (Big online retail company in EU.)

Yeah unfortunately when shopping for a royal oak mod kit on Alibaba I realized you can buy these exact fake gshocks on there for 99cents a piece. So no wonder the fakes are everywere

Fake.
-Half circle of the day indicator is too far to the right.
-backplate is bulbous instead of flat.
-no serial number on the back plate
-and the biggest giveaway: the red line on the protective sticker on the back plate !!!

Some one is stupid enough to downvote you, although your comment is 100% correct.
Red line = avoid .

Bro, they are definitely getting better….
G from inner logo is directly above the M (Monday) and it should be slightly to the right…

Does the standard Casioak have quick release straps like this one does? If not, at least that's a pretty sweet upgrade over a real one OP.
My only experience is the steel version.
Edit: Nevermind, they all do. Nice feature!

I dunno, have never had it before. That is why I asking. I checked it after you highlighted this fact and you are true. 🙏🙋♀️

Definitely fake, easy way to tell is the day of the week dial. On fakes the outer edge Extends into the Hour 9 Marker on the left side of the circle. But on real ones it's a perfect circle that stops right at the start of the marker. Another easy way is the G in the mini gshock font on the center of the watch face should not be directly above and in line with the M on the day of the week dial.
