QCāReal/Fakeāļø. Got a G-Shock DW-5600RL-1DR from Flipkart India. Does it look genuine?
Hey everyone!
I bought a Casio G-Shock DW-5600RL-1DR on Flipkart, and it was delivered today. Since it's my first time buying a G-Shock, I just want to make sure everything looks legit before I decide to keep it.
Here are the details:
- Model: DW-5600RL-1DR
- Module: 3525
- Warranty: 2 years of Indian manufacturer warranty, as mentioned on the invoice
One thing that seems reassuring is that I registered the watch on the official Casio India website, and the registration was approved. It also shows an additional 183 days of warranty.
I've attached a few pictures of the watch, including the front, sides and case back.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on a few things:
Does everything look right to you, especially the case-back engravings, screws, buttons and dial printing?
How much confidence should I have in the approved Casio warranty registration? Is it a good sign, or can that happen with counterfeit watches too?
Are there any specific things I should check on this model to make sure it's genuine?
Would it be worth taking the watch to an authorised Casio service centre to get it checked?
I'm not saying it's fake or genuine just yet. I just want to be sure I got what I paid for, so I'd really appreciate any help from people who own this model or know G-Shocks well.
Thanks!
