G-Shock Rangeman Original VS Fake Comparison 2019

[@paulg2100]

Been having my Rangeman for 8 years plus and never thought to check if it was fake .. this video has me sweating 😅.. happy to say 100% authentic, passed every single check !! Thank you sir !!

[@bigmeany1184]

Another sign would be that it actually lasts more than a year lol typically fakes don’t last a long time.

[@vinzandrietambong6649]

Sir how much the fake watch?

[@kleffner123456]

😂 Good stuff!! Me as well. I guess I got lucky, I think it’s real.

[@lucarele1990]

Se fosse falso não duraria tanto .precisa teste ainda?kkk😊

[@felixlugo4840]

If it lasted 8 years, trust me it's real😅

[@MrRocque]

one definative method to check for a fake is the 'lcd test'. Many Gshocks at this level (that has one of the ABC functions) and four buttons (not counting the light button) has a factory lcd segment test. labeling the buttons from top left, top right, lower left and lower right as buttons A, B, C and D...in the local time mode press buttons A, C and D (as I've labeled them, not as Casio labels them) the watch will display ALL LCD segments. A press on the D button will move the test to stage 2 (smaller lcds), then D button moves to stage 3 (looks just like stage 1). Stage 4 shows a four digit number. This may be the module number or the version number (it will be close to the module number). Stage 5 displays a 3 digit number (assuming part of the version number). Another click on the D button returns the watch to local time mode. Some Gshock (high definition pixel display) watches will open menu on the sreen, using the B button select 'Basic' then scroll (buttons A and C) to MIP and select with B button this will display EVERY working pixel. FAKES do not have these functions, most fakes don't even have all the modes of a real Gshock. But, if you don't know what functions are supposed to be included with the model your looking at, try the '3 button LCD test'.

[@davidmcc359]

Maybe I'm airing the obvious but there is three things I would like to mention. 1. To note the differences, you require both. 2. Choosing the cheapest/or half price offer online HAS TO RAISE DOUBTS over it's authenticity. Finally; 3. Buying the required item, from a reputable company site, at the normal price is the only way to avoid the fakes.. In other words, if the deal seems too good to be true - it most probably is...

[@Modupehsautowork13]

@tungi no they're mad because of the 9400 Defect (rangeman resin case tends to crack).

Any person who sells a fake product for tricking a customer, should deserve a punch in the face. I hate charlatan salesmen!

[@richardrice3192]

I see the screws on the bezel are set perpendicular towards the display on the original, on the fake one they are quasi horizontally...just my observation.

[@StevelsCamping]

I just bought one and it gets delivered this week March 17.... I'll be referring to your video to make sure it's the real thing. Thanks!

[@LuisGonzalez-ph8zp]

Just bought one online came in today then I was looking up how to set it up and scene this video thank god mine is original 😅😁

[@MartinLuetzelberger]

Got my ORIGINAL Rangeman! Used your video to proof it. Thank you very much!

[@erickmarpaung6368]

4:55 simple test. if you want to know how to prove the authentic G Shock so you can look at the strap should be not straight.

[@NetAndyCz]

You totally got me with the mask, I thought it is video from this year:) Anyway the original is an incredible watch. Have been using and abusing it for three years and it still serves me perfectly. I have been having it underwater, in mud, in a freezer... I wonder how the fake one does in the freezer:p

[@MRunt-kk6gm]

compare mcm ni mampuih la.. masa org nak beli dari seller jenuh la bawah jam ori plak.. kalau 1st timer mmg susah dorang nak compare.. cara paling elok adalah dengan menggunakan module.. cuba kata BNB original pasang kat fake/copy tu?.. acaner? ok la compass copy ori jalan betul.. skrg dah ada compass yg bole jalan elok tau. korang try tekan Adjust + Forward dgn Lampu = bole check Multiband wujud ke tak.. ada J40 J60 etc etc.. (COPY ORI TADAK BENDA NI WOI) pastu try lagi Adjust + Mode + Reverse = SLR solar test pastu tekan Mode kluar TLT plak. tutup muka jam SLR akan keluar 8888. maknanya solar tu ok.. TLT utk tilt sensor lak.. autolight sensor.. condongkan jam.

[@jouwenlee7829]

Best comment here!

[@jouwenlee7829]

Ada satu lagi cara I baru belajar: Tekan butang Adjust + Mode + Forward => semua dot/graphic/perkataan pada screen akan muncul. Kemudian tekan Mode => akan muncul nama city time zone yang sudah set.

[@amirmuhamad1473]

Bos, malaysia pkai band apa

[@Firmark-uh1tb]

maaf bos lani jam kopi dah ada TLT sbb copy rangeman dh wujud solar cuma belom wujud mltiband6 ...dgan altimter and baro saja di jam rangeman..

[@44444rash]

Got my watch today and I'm happy that mine is authentic. Thanks for the comparison!! Appreciate it.

[@Sashimi404]

Easiest way to determine original vs fake rangeman is by looking at the TOP part solar panel grid line. Original: perpendicular line Fake: Slanted at an angle

[@LAKKImidnightKING]

I purchased this watch in 2016 from India and its original thank you 🙏

[@robl8247]

Thanks for this I ordered a Rangeman today I will scrutinize it when it arrives 😎

[@bjw4859]

That was very helpful I have just bought a Casio GW-9500-3JF from a 100% seller in Japan on ebay & it was not cheap so I believe it is real, this was a large outlay for me but I particularly wanted the Japanese version due to it's reputation, could you please do a comparison on this watch if you can, cheers from Australia.

[@BarnOwl61]

Buying a pre owned GSHOCK is very tricky. There are way too many fake articles on the market/internet. And without an original to compare, it is very, very hard to recognise a fake. Not only from a Range man, but the cheaper models too. Thanks!

[@apitsanams4007]

Yup its true.. Basically the fake one uses the function same like Mudman G9300 but a little bit different.

[@alphakilo9066]

The Ninja has the best fake buster comparisons.......👍

[@svlotoy]

Don't forget about the orientation of the 4 screws on the bezel.

[@carlopaglialunga3965]

Great Video !!! I have the Geniune Authentic GW-9400 Rangeman Watch ...... paid less than half price !!!! NEW !......Anyways are there Fake Protreks PRW-7000 -3 versions. ? I'm waiting for delivery and a bit nervous it could be fake.

[@vezquex]

You noted the color of "Reverse", but the font is also wrong, most notably the W in "Forward".

[@mizanglerchannel5945]

do u know nowadays copy 1:1 all function almost same..and hard to detect which one ori or fake

[@laughworld1111]

Thank you so much for your work as it will help thousands of people being scammed each day. Keep up the good work man.

[@redsox7897]

yes it doesn't make sense to buy fake rangeman because we buy rangeman for its triple sensors. if you just need alarm time/alarm/stopwatch just buy genuine gshock with those functions only. you get more accurate time also official warranty from casio

[@derekbecker3987]

Did you alter the screws on the front of the fake? I notice the original has nicely aligned screws like my own watch but the fake has screws that are not aligned nicely.

[@aimanrulez7339]

Derek Becker no the fakes screws come aligned randomly

[@gohjohan]

I didn't read all of the comments but among the genuine Rangeman watch does not hold the battery charge for long. I rarely get "High" level for my battery indicator

[@fredminpin]

I'm guessing that it wasn't advertised as being fake or even a copy. I recall seeing various copy items before, but were branded with a different or similar sounding name, like Ebok instead of Rebok shoes. It appears that they put a lot of work into the fake or counterfeit one, but of course they are trying to sell them and make more money off of the Casio brand name. Any suggestions to avoid buying into such a scam? Obviously the biggest would be buying from a reputable outlet or store. Thanks for sharing the information and reminding us that there are so many people out there working only to take advantage of other hard working people.

[@bebuchwebmaster2046]

My golden rule: NEVER BUY USED. I know that's not how collecting works, but it works for me. That in conjunction with what you're saying, i.e. buy from a reputable outlet, should ensure you never have to worry. Also, a bit of research not only equips you with tons of knowledge about the watch, technical as well as visual that helps you understand the original's features and appearance, but it can sometimes also give you a chance to cool off before rushing into a disastrous impulse purchase. My 2c worth.

[@agayfuzzypandabear]

Be careful on sites such as amazon or ebay, lots of counterfeits. You can usually find things like watches available to purchase from the manufacturer so you know it's real. If you question the authenticity of your g shock, look up the model name (ex. GW-M 5610, the watch on his wrist in the video) and go to the official G-Shock site. View all details on the watch, and scroll to the bottom of the pop-up menu. On the bottom will be listed the weight, weigh your watch and compare. If it's off by more than just a small fraction of a gram, it's fake.

[@justmeeagainn]

I was once on my way to work and hurrying and my Discman batteries went dead. So I saw some guy on the street selling what looked exactly like Duracell batteries and I bought a pack. Same paint on them and everything. When I got to work, the batteries were dead. I took a good look, and they said “Plenticell” on them! I just had to laugh.

[@danielmeneses2334]

Buyer beware Be careful...🧐...with your 💰

[@thenapster]

Should show some more units for the fake one. Cause it comes from many manufactures. Some fake units definately the same with the original.

[@RenoLaringo]

I just received a brand new one and though it's 100% original, the date display is the exact same color as the rest. So keep that in mind. Mine is the late black and yellow.

[@shanerichardson9568]

You forgot the outer screws on the face. The lines should point to the center of the watch if it has never been disassembled.

[@vanessaronquillo8312]

The original will have 8888 digits appearing on the screen once you add simultaneously press the search adjust and mode buttons.

Apparently he was burnt in a candle blowing record attempt, he also burnt all his hair off and its only grown back in some places. Rumors have it he doesn't like Christmas.

[@frankjaath1623]

When I go swimming with my friends, I like to jump from the bridge. The bridge is about 5-6 meters high (maybe) but is tall. Which if I wear the Gw9400 to jump into water will cause the system and sensor of the watch to break? PS 1. It is the watch that the gw9400 hits with water. Shouldn't be the water pressure because it doesn't go down very deep. (I don't know, just wonder, ask the elders)

[@adammalik9251]

It won't break :)

Thanks for heads up brother, I literally just ordered this exact watch from Amazon. I ordered another, the Casio Tactical Mudmaster GGB100-1A9 and it appears to be real. everything operates like it should and some comparisons like you did between these 2 watches seems to fit good for this watch. Subscribed!!

[@FILIPooo82]

I think you should start the description with a watch package, there are really differences between a real and a fake watch. Greetings from g shock fan

Are you wearing the Casio G-shock Dw 5600?? Great watch! Amazing value for money!! 👍

[@shukry0115]

Thanks for the information now ill take note

[@MJRusso2]

The one I just received has all the signs of an original (gray lettering as opposed to white, white light as opposed to blue, darker date window, sharper image on the caseback, all seemingly working functions, etc.) EXCEPT the SIGNAL function shown @ 6:30 in the video isn't there, but it DOES have the R/C RECEIVED shown @ 7:00. It's either the best knock-off ever or Casio has changed the programming a bit? Any ideas?

[@HPM2006]

Lol same for my rangeman hope ours isn’t fake

[@tinnybird1971]

Good video. I bought the green one last year for Christmas. So far everything is all real about it except for the black seals around the buttons. I toggled with mine exactly like you did in video, It operates EXACTLY like the real one in your video. I just bought a new one yesterday for a mother's day gift to myself. It's either a different type of rangeman OR a mudmaster not sure. But on the manual the model is #5545/5525. I will check it out on a KZbin video to see. But i love it. It's both analog & digital. Everytime I go watch shopping, I should bring you along. Haha! But one question... I noticed at the end of the video, I heard a faint beep from the watch everytime you touched it & moved it, What is that? And what does it mean? Thanks for your video! 😃😊

[@MyKarateca]

Rangeman GW9400-1 vs Rangeman GW9400-1CR ?? Original GS doesn’t have CR? What does it means? Thanks

[@ariefhalisaputra1391]

Sometimes you buy a fake gshock(especially the expensive one) just to custom the band&bezel. You can buy a fake Rangeman Burton,Rescue or jelly transparent,and put on an original modul.. Original Bezel&band Burton or Rescue series too expensive to custom.
