[@adr3nz]

I just got ordered a GA-2100PTS-2A, cant wait for it to arrive 😍

[@orsostamas1838]

I was watching this video while holding my G in my hand and followed your words. I am happy that my G is 99.99% real 😁😁👍🏽👍🏽

[@SamsWatchReview]

Congrats, happy to hear that :)

[@itsyourtime8221]

I was holding a duplicate and everything was same as your watch 😅

[@heavenlypot]

​@itsyourtime8221 how did you know it's a fake?

[@Krithik-ij8kl]

Wot abt that .1 percent ?💀

[@Doc_Tejas]

Maybe it's a Chinese cased model😅​@@Krithik-ij8kl

[@cosmicbandit3265]

My ga 2100 rgb-1adr has its strap a little lose and woobly but except that all the signs are matching is that all the straps with G-Shock s lose or is it just mine

[@SamsWatchReview]

The strap fitting on mine also slightly wobbling :)

[@cosmicbandit3265]

Great then

[@cosmicbandit3265]

Was just wondering is my strap wobbly or is it for Evrone ☺️👌🏻

[@cosmicbandit3265]

@@SamsWatchReview btw sam I have my G ga 2100 RGB and it's a little glossy on the straps and case and my straps also are a little squeaky when I move it is it for me

[@cosmicbandit3265]

@@SamsWatchReview and the back of the buckle on my strap says just China in Casio font is this sus ???

Hi, they are different between weight? Original weights 51g and the fake?

[@SamsWatchReview]

Frankly, I don't have a specific number for the weight, and there's so many "version" of the GA2100 counterfeits. But usually, fake gshocks weigh less.

[@rcinematic]

How long have you had the fake ones? I’m getting a real one but I do want to get a fake steel one lol I rather spend 40 than 400 for the steel version during a night out or special occasions lol

[@SamsWatchReview]

I think I'm very lucky that I've never been (successfully) scammed into buying a fake one :) As an alternative to the metal version, you can search for GA2100 steel/metal mod kit.

[@leonardocollini368]

Hi! Thx for the vid. I ve just bought the grey version. I can see all the 7 signs shown but...on the back its written cased in china not in thailand...could be a fake one? I ve already seen some model on internet with this signature but..does someone know something about?

[@SamsWatchReview]

Some of my G-Shocks are made in China, although this particular unit was made in Thailand. I don't have an exact answer; maybe they're already expanding the production operation of the later models to China. But if the watch was from an official distributor / reputable seller, then don't worry about it :)

[@leonardocollini368]

@@SamsWatchReview thx for the answer!

[@princerobk5405]

Watched a few of these fake 2100 videos. Nobody mentions the serial number. Fales generally don't have a serial number

[@schvyler]

Some do. Most fake ones have a serial number imprint that’s pressed equally deep as the other markers. A real one has a serial number that’s lightly pressed and harder to read, if that makes sense.

[@Sahil-jo8kr]

I purchased the watch. but by pressing three buttons together pixels segment is not showing in my watch

[@growbro8145]

Same here

[@growbro8145]

I ordered it from Myntra

[@Sahil-jo8kr]

@@growbro8145 I was doing it wrong thats why

[@Sahil-jo8kr]

@@growbro8145 First u need to stop the time. By pressing the mode button for 3 seconds after on screen its shows TMR you will hear a beep sound after this you can go press buttons together mode adjust and start to see pixel screen

[@SamsWatchReview]

Yes, the LCD check will works in timekeeping mode, but not other mode :)

[@SpacePigBaRR]

Does this apply for the GM2100 as well?

[@SamsWatchReview]

Sorry but I can't really answer that, I don't have that model to compare :)

[@cristianionica6853]

My Casio GA 2100 LCD no longer lights up. Does anyone know why? The LED lights up, but the LCD does not.

[@SamsWatchReview]

Sounds like the battery is almost dead :)

[@cristianionica6853]

Thanks for the reply. The watch has 2 batteries. Do I need to replace both of them?

[@SamsWatchReview]

In my opinion, it's better to change both (so you don't have to do the battery change again in the near future)

[@toshik.22]

Battery change

[@suicai99]

My grey one, minute hand is not precise, somewhat slanted to the right for every minute marker. But the rest of the sign are spot on correct.

[@SamsWatchReview]

Maybe you can try to do the "hands alignment" menu/feature, hopefully it will fix the problem :)

[@Jefprox4201]

mine says from japan i triedto appraise in pawn it says mine is original even not cased in thailand

[@yamada1154]

Cause casio is japanese brand, though they have manufacturers on other countries like thailand

[@lipanbehera8580]

Is there Radium hands in this

[@SamsWatchReview]

Yes, it has lume on the hands

[@shuqifleysalasa4643]

i recently got this watch .. (1 week ago) but the strap is very uncomfortable .. is there any way to make it softer or will daily wearing it make the resin strap better and comfortable // any advice

[@SamsWatchReview]

Good day. Sometimes, new straps are stiff and not following the shape of our wrist. It will break in but might will takes time. You can try to speed up the break in time by set the strap tightly when not used, like the one in this video:) kzbin.info/www/bejne/moTUlah3nbWgbbssi=h8zBuxMtDPBjgLps

[@shuqifleysalasa4643]

@SamsWatchReview much appreciated for the response....I did just that ,what the video instructed

[@gesie0504]

I hope you have the FAKE one for comparison. But nevertheless a good video friend. 👍🏻

[@SamsWatchReview]

Thank you for the input. Have a great weekend :)

[@afiktori5217]

Why would anyone produce a fake version of a $100 watch

[@SamsWatchReview]

I'm sure you'll be even more surprised, that there are also a lot of counterfeits to the $15 watch, the F91W :D

[@kartikgoel752]

​@@SamsWatchReviewyeah there are.

[@newlook16]

It's not about buyer but seller are selling fakes showing as original

[@marktibbetts3799]

I got a Fugazi. It leaked at 2 feet depth water

[@SamsWatchReview]

Sorry to hear that :(

[@mothergoose4231]

was great till at the very end he says "99.99%" .... good vid though thanks

[@SamsWatchReview]

Thanks for watching! There's always that tiny chance :D
