DON'T GET SCAMMED! REAL VS FAKE Comparison and Review GA110 G-SHOCK Casio

Comparing a real vs Fake GA110 G-Shock... don't get scammed. Look at the subtle differences. Know how to spot a fake.

[@Rocknracing69]

Thank you for this video! The fakes are getting better. I just got scammed online. The back is flat, the spring is correct inside, the lettering was correct, no film on the crystal. However the guts were wrong and so was the clasp. I appreciate people like you educating the masses!

[@jessewadon6883]

Dude, thank you so much! This is an extremely helpful video. Buying a used g-shock and wanted to tell how to spot a fake. This is the best "spot a fake" video I've found for these by far.

[@sdmarinkashifu4536]

Bought a fake one for around 20usd more or less and compared it to my buddy who had an original one 280usd. We were both laughing because of the price difference but still functioning the same. I still wear my fake one to this day (3yrs later) and the ones from my buddy were gone already (stolen, lol)

[@习维尼-h7f]

yeah u r right

[@savageaf1943]

fake easily wear from daily bumps and scratches... legits gshock stays the same after 10years

[@cdbeatmaster]

Also be aware of the dots between 8 and 9 H. The real one should have 3 dots between every hour while the fake ones have only 2 dots between 8 and 9 hour.

[@wildfire9497]

I used to buy fake one before because it is cheaper. But after checking review, i decided to buy original one with the same model. Looks different, feels different, comfortable to wear. Totally worth it. Love it a 1000 times.

[@GiShockGo]

Wildfire glad you went with authentic. Much better investment. It'll last forever

[@uhhTabby]

Authentic is much better

[@savageaf1943]

yes fake just looks good but within months it will start to break daily bumps fall etc. first the strap and then the glass.... not like the original 7 years still looks the same

[@ChibiKeruchan]

original is always better. these fake are most often how they practice making watches. you see, young and new watch maker need something to practice on so they copy someone else work. it's like practicing calligraphy. you learn by copying someone how to write well. who ever do these high class imitation pretty sure will land a good job somewhere else.

[@GASH_one]

My first G-Shock (1596 DW-003) had a protective plastic film on the glass. I bought it in a German watch shop in 1997. But you're right, not a single original comes with a protective film these days.

[@abhiverma9294]

Proud owner of the same model for about 5 years now. I am 27 now, people do ask often why am I wearing a kids watch 😂

[@jbrevealsall]

Thanks for this. Got one from a local well renowned high street returns auction house in the UK. Didn't feel right so popped the back off and its a fake. They have a load more ending soon so they will be getting a call on Monday. Thanks again for taking the time to upload the guide.

[@GiShockGo]

jbrevealsall so glad you caught it! Hope they do the right thing. Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your experience!

[@jbrevealsall]

@@GiShockGo yep they refunded me and pulled all the rest from auction immediately as they hadn't realised. Cheers

[@jimg8887]

Also on the real dial on the outside about the 8:00 position you see 3 dots. On the fake there are only 2 and you can't access the secret menu on a fake to test the screen.

[@YouTubeCertified]

Great vid. I just bought a watch on eBay; I’ll use our vid to look out for these different characteristics. Thanks

[@michaelvoorhees5978]

Thanks for no update.......

[@byronmilsap6006]

Last year I bought a Citizen Blue Angels watch on Wish for $35.00... this is a $550 retail watch... looks great, it still keeps good time and I rotate it regularly with my "real' watches...took a pic of the dial with my phone and dammit, this watch says Blue Angles on the dial! After peeling the plastic on the dial and looking at the slight bubble back, I just sent my seller a message on Ebay about a G-shlock I got last week... thanx!

[@kangvp9512]

My first G-Shock, was actually a fake 😢 110. Aah, I was an idiot at 9 years of age. I know it was fake because of three things. The speed gauge never worked, and it looked like it was stuck on the watch like a sticker on a book. The lettering “G-Shock” wore out after one day. The watch stopped working after I barely put it under 10cm of water. I did it twice, over the course of 4 years. The first water damage killed some of the display, the second dipping killed the watch. I bought a new G-Shock after 4 gruesome years, because I didn’t want to get scammed again. Thankfully I bought an original GA-700, still works today. I also have a DW-5600 and hopefully will buy a G-9000 Mudmaster in the future.

[@michaelhazen3153]

I got a fake GA-110 on eBay recently. It had the plastic covers on the crystal and backplate. That gave it away because I know that G-shocks don't come with covers on them. Also the backplate was bubbled out. I sent the pictures of these to eBay and they sent my money back and I got to keep the game watch also.😮

[@Anteroization]

mine the rasta model is fake but i knew because was purchased by a street vendor - 20 bucks but what i did not know is that the plastic film was there to be removed after purchase. both look pretty for a plastic watch.

[@OverlandTT]

My Ga-110 is made in Thailand and 100% genuine as it’s almost 14 years old and before it became popular.

[@TWN-nw4jd]

Thanks for this, very nearly put a bid on one I now assume to be fake (new in box without any paperwork was my first clue)

[@03819]

0:20 💯 agree with you, the fakes are getting more similar to the originals 💢

[@jokajive]

Hello. Im curious what if we push the A,C,D button at the same time? Is the fake will show the module like the real one?

[@lovejonez78]

Gotta score this color scheme though! Loves it

[@CinemaMacabro]

I bought a Gshock Casio G-Shock GA110GB-1A 51MM that was fake for 24 bucks with case, I compared it to the real one and they look identical, I still wear my fake one it does its job

[@kevinjamesdawes7223]

Also if they can fake them so well for £40 including postage and still make it worth the effort of making the tin and instruction and packaging then the mark up on the real thing must be criminal.

[@uhhTabby]

Yes big markup. All g shocks go on sale for 50% off at times

[@jimlim4323]

The band was the first thing I picked out for the fake, the holes are kind of closer together

[@GiShockGo]

Good eye, i didn't catch that! Thanks for watching and commenting. Please subscribe if you haven't already.

[@GiShockGo]

Jim Lim thanks!

[@mdwahidurrahaman6238]

I want this watch band & fullcabinet how to buying tell me

[@jonnicolas3115]

Easiest way to know if your's is original Look in the middle of 9 and 8 o' clock there should be *3* dots its the *ORIGINAL* ,mine is original... if there are only *2* dots it is *FAKE*

[@kevhavard]

Thank you for this. I just got a suspected fake in the post and putting it against my real one the concerns were raise further. I knew it was too cheap to be true (£48). It's an eBay shop so I will report them.

[@joelasie2961]

Mine is fake bro, I found a screen protector on it 😫😫 and It said Ga-110S

[@janeinarandersen4933]

I would love to own a real gshock, but the thing is that theyre way out of my budget, I got some fakes, they look nice, and the time on em works, so it's fine for now. But good to know how to spot the difference. Also the fakes I own dosn't cost more than 15-25 USD i think it is (i pay in CLP 15-25k clp) and they serve for my use. real gshocks is over 100 usd as I've noticed, even tho the real ones are amazing.

[@bespoke2030]

I got scammed to mine the speed dial doesn't work and the buttons work in a different order

[@davenelson1571]

Can the fake move it's hands backwards? That's usually a sign of a fake

[@uhhTabby]

Yes, if the minute hand only goes forward then it’s fake

[@Patrickglover11]

Yep mine is fake, but didn't know and rocked it for years in high school. Still lots of compliments tho.

[@kamikazes0undwavez]

Yo what model is this, this color scheme is FIRE! I want it

[@jokajive]

Did you still want this model? Try to search GA 110 HC (hypercolor). Hypercolor series released in 2011. the model in this video was doraemon color theme

[@cris99s16]

The second one looks fake! am i correct

[@Sõsuke_Aizen152]

please tell me from where to buy the fake or orignal one plzz😭

[@DavidR-ub2dp]

I have a fake ga 100 casio g shock i got it two years ago today I realized its a knock off fake

[@Costinmusca]

I could and I did :) (just because I was looking for the differences, otherwise.. )

[@SirMintfelix]

Very nice movie 🎥 thanks to ur video 📹 brother 👍

[@mariozee899]

Thanks for the video..however i just bought the fake G140 that i thought was original 😩😩😢😢

[@NewYorkMets978]

Thank you for this.

[@memyself2228]

My one does not have a film I thought it was fake turns out it’s not supposed to I took it to a g shack store they said it’s 100 real cuz I have the warranty

[@izenhahn]

Right away I knew the one on the right is a fake judging by the placement of '1000' label and amout of dots between 8 and 9.

[@oskarmihalovic3903]

my question is what is the difference btw fake and original, both doing same, i have the fake one and every feature work like on original?

[@CyclingNeko]

Most of it are doing the same, to tell time. But in some specific features, it is different. There are some authentic Casio Edifice with Neon Illuminator, it got neon glow when the light is on. It is very beautiful to see, especially if you like this kind of glow effect. While fake one, only single light source, or there are no Neon Glow at all. Both watches are do the same thing, but the intended features are different. This is the reason why I hate the fake one and prefer with the authentic. Neon Illuminator may be not important, but for some people (like me), it is important, it's a good and interesting design. And people also buy design. If you only need a watch to do the basic function, then it doesn't mater if it fake or not. But if you need more than just a telling time device, like: Quality workmanship, quality material, additional features, and also the good feeling of wearing authentic product, go with the real one.

[@uhhTabby]

It’s not built like real g shock. Probably no waterproof or shock proof, not to mention the insides are probably cheaper and less quality on the fake

[@thisguy5655]

You can see right away the bezel colours are different. On the fake the white is not white.

[@Itsmaikitosworld]

Right away, the one one right.

[@catabonaeugene6991]

i bought one but it has a plastic film cover on the glass😥

[@GiShockGo]

Catabona Eugene oh no! That's not a good sign

[@uhhTabby]

Fake

[@DavidR-ub2dp]

I like your channel thanks for the info

[@xero_fyn]

Very helpful thanks a lot💖

[@DennisRichardH]

I just received my first G Shock off of Mercari, it is a fake, thanks for letting me see it while I can still return it. It is a Hypercolor. Seemed too cheap to be true. BTW, i noticed another tell on the face, which could be seen over the internet. Between the hands and the actual face, there are three pieces or struts that on this one are red surrounding a white highlight, on one of these three bars/ struts it says "CASIO WR120BAR". Where these three pieces/ struts go under the blue highlight that goes around the face (but the blue is only between the raised portion that indicates the five minute intervals or Noon, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1, the blue portion on the fake continues the same line under the three pieces/ struts as everywhere else. On the authentic one, the blue portion has a sort of recess only under the three pieces/ struts. So if the fake is like this one, but maybe different colors, you can look at where the three pieces/ struts approach the highlight, if there is one, to see if it is NOT recessed, making it a fake. This probably won't give away every fake, since different G shocks may not have that same highlight, or the fake may be made differently by a different factory.

[@gaborhapont1571]

Thanks for your video ! W

[@lexopims3660]

Nakabili narin ako nyan sabi original , pero nag fafade ung kulay. Pero matibay xa, nilagay ko sa freezer at nilubog ko sa tubig ng t hrs. Ok Naman, nalaman kulang peke nung nagiina na ung kulay ng white, nag bebeige na xa

[@dondondini3661]

I have these watch orginal one :) . Fake is matte white

[@monkeypolice3048]

Thanks

[@kamal.p.r3829]

Bro i was able to identify the fake it's buckle holes were tiny and looked bad quality.🤯

[@LefftSideLB]

Wow man I genuinely thought the one on the right was the real one because it was more vibrant with the colours/lettering popped more on the right one , most fakes I have seen have been opposite and usually are less vibrant than the real ones, I don’t F wit the fakes just because people be selling them now for the same prices as real ones , but damn That’s a good fake for sure 🤣

[@1MPUL5IVE]

Thanks man I ordered one online and it arrived today and it’s fake as well it looks like it’s from the same maker as that one too ha. I requested a return.

[@GiShockGo]

Mikel Ibarra so glad you caught it before it’s too late!

[@SirMintfelix]

Wow very well same

[@samjaafnomancha7388]

good job sr

[@GiShockGo]

Bikas Rana thanks!

[@latuman]

Spotted the fake immediately. There's no finishing and the white is tinted yellow. Horrifying.

[@masonbaker2377]

Things are changing all the time with fake watches... This clip might not be relevant tommorrow.

[@Wolfpacker]

True, but opening the back you can always tell. A fake is not going to spend the money or time to fabricate all those intricate metal pieces. That's where the cost for a real G-shock comes from(although part of it is from the name also). But you can always tell a quality module from a fake by opening it up. The fakes want to spend as little as possible and hope to get 75%+ of the people to not realize until it is too late to return.

[@StayHomeEatGreat]

Correct. My buckle looks shiny but the inside and 3 dots are just like the real one.

[@naecatalin2637]

👍

[@tammysharonlorettastafford3376]

I one got scammed with a fake Bape DW6900!Man what a downer! 😭Now I am more careful!

[@Forever_Soul]

rubber itself tells you the truth already

[@andrewdaley3081]

The white on the fake it not right thats how i could tell. Andy England 🇬🇧👍

[@MikesMobileCarWashandValeting]

Noce dude. ⌚⌚⌚

[@supervortex8363]

dont get scammed buy the fake its a 10th of the price,they both tell time,you carnt copy that nice colour by the way

[@kevinjamesdawes7223]

Of course you can't because there's nothing to like about these watches. Watch am I missing. Out of 10 functionality score about 2 looks about the same, they look like a child's watch, and no use as a diver or sport watch because its to hard to read. So it must be just a collection thing like swatch is for some women. Maybe early ones were better or ahead of the game but now they're just hideous and useless. And as for fake or real. Mine has all the real one has but I know it has to be fake.

[@temmink2012]

Left is ALWAYS the real one 🙄

[@mrld3005]

the fake one has a better battery

[@SirMintfelix]

I have real and fake what is up my dear

[@pashans]

I spotted the fake one on its poor plastic quality.

[@beachcaster56]

Letter spacing on the fake is bad

[@cris99s16]

the intro

[@thetruebatman4632]

They both look fake lol what a wild design.

[@falborg217]

I bought a real one for cheap

[@dn06se83]

fake one has bigger battery then the real one.

[@john256ix3]

Mine Is real

[@GiShockGo]

THE REAL johnnyswaggedout excellent!! You looked frantically though right? lol

[@michaelvoorhees5978]

It's obvious the white looks yellow on the fake. Why is every comment on here not saying it's immediate to notice the yellowish white on fake
