    Looks like a fake - I don't even see any solar panels. And I also never saw a G(W)-9300 with that color scheme. LCD looks fake too.

    cheers, Sedi

    Yep, it's fake. I've seen several fakes in different color schemes on the auction site. So far, only 3 versions of the 9300 have been released. 9300-1, 9300GB, and 9300GY.

    Yep, and there are some other color variants of this fake. Check this one out:

    This particular fake example is being sold by purple-hoss2 on eBay. Note that the bugger has several other fakes in his line-up, to include a 5600, 6900, and DW-9350J Raysman. He is selling just one legitimate G-Shock. There isn't a history of selling fakes. I'll bet he got duped and is now trying to pass them on to the next person.

    ^ I mentioned to the seller about their fakes... and they said they had no clue that they were. I pointed them out to MyGShock and the large photos they could use for comparison. They acknowledged recognition of the fakes and pulled them. Thankfully, as there were several of their fakes getting some decent bidding action (one was already over $100).

    the fastest way to recognize them is to look on the buttons, they have Light and Adjust button misplaced.

    That's one possible flaw, although I suspect there may be fakes out there for the Mudman that have the right labels on the buttons.

    These are popping up on ebay. The seller maintained that it was real even after I showed him this thread. What can we do except keep reporting them :/
