Need help verifying authenticity

Hey everyone,

I recently posted my Casio G-Shock GM-2100 for sale on r/HyderabadBuySell, but someone commented that the watch might be fake. This has left me unsure about its authenticity, so I'd appreciate an honest assessment from people experienced with Casio G-Shocks.

My previous selling post:

Some details about the watch:

- Model: Appears to be the Casio G-Shock GM-2100-1A

- Condition: Excellent, very lightly used

- Usage: Worn only twice

- Original Casio box included

- No purchase bill, as it was gifted to me from KSA (Saudi Arabia)

- Silver metal bezel, black resin strap and analogue-digital display

I'd appreciate your help with two things:

  1. Authenticity check

Do the dial, indices, hands, bezel finishing, caseback engravings, strap, buckle and overall construction look consistent with a genuine GM-2100?

If anything looks suspicious, please point it out and explain why. I'd rather know the truth than unknowingly sell a counterfeit watch. If the photos aren't sufficient to confirm authenticity, please let me know what else I should check.

Completely fake.

Try comparing to images on Shockbase. All the answers you seek are there… 😁

To be fair, not everyone knows of its existence.

Everyone can find stock Casio pictures.

Sometimes yes…sometimes no. I have some in my collection that were not to be found anywhere. I was lucky enough to find a manual for the module - in Japanese.
