    Fake Alert Casio G Shock Frogman Air Diver's 200m

    Another variation on the Frog theme. The watches in all their varieties, with or without hands, seem to come in cases that look half decent to a casual glance so why do the fakers stuff such awful modules into them?

    WRUW : 23rd Jan -> 29th Jan

    Good buy - always a worry when you only have an iffy photo to judge condition on. Looks like your gamble paid off, was it cheap because of the picture? Working from home today, too lazy to change watches, still wearing my GW-500. As you can see from the picture I am really working very hard ...

    How did you find G-Shockzone?

    It was probably through google. And I found the site very friendly without any flame wars, waffle or digressions (until I came along) :D

    Whoops, showing my age there! It's Cockney Wu Tang Clan - rhyming slang. Sexton = Sexton Blake = fake. Sexton Blake was a kind of Happy Shopper version of Sherlock Holmes and first appeared in print in 1893. I first came across the term on encountering the artist and restorer Tom Keating who...

    And to finish off the week with one of my two Froggies. It has been in a ziploc bag since I got it and was on my wrist under a soft light coloured fleece for a couple of hours. Covered in dust!

    No reply from your man but he ( I assume ) has pulled the auction with "item is no longer available". The problem is that it all too easy to buy these fakes from the far east, singly or in bulk and then punt them out to buyers who either don't know that they are buying a fake and are put off...

    Unfortunately not an isolated incident. People are buying all kinds of fake Casios on eBay and eBay authorities seem to do nothing about acting on any reports of counterfeit watches sent in. For this one...
