Just did the math and all of mine are 30+ years old. Got 4, 6, 8 and 12 inch Mitutoyos for $10 an inch back then.+1 for msc. If you're in the midwest you're likely to have them in a few days. Mine are 30+ years old and for 10 plus years i used them every day. Now I just use them in the gun room. I have knock off digital spi set work with the battery dead whenever I need them.
I was worried about the same thing when I got mine. This is where I got mine (and mine are legit, just have to be careful exactly what Amazon actually sends you):I'm thinking i want Mitutoyo calipers but I'm reading fakes are in Amazon's pile.

That what i was looking at. The description says comes with the lr44 batteries which is not the correct batteries says all the real vrs knockoffs. That's what has me worried.I was worried about the same thing when I got mine. This is where I got mine (and mine are legit, just have to be careful exactly what Amazon actually sends you):
Hmmm??? When I read the description in several places at that link (like "What's in the Box) it say SR44 battery. So, what you say is very puzzling.That what i was looking at.

MSC coolent proof seems to catch my eye ....
Well . . . as I said, I had concerns too when I ordered mine. When I got them I carefully inspected them looking for the signs of them being fake, but everything checked out (including having the correct battery). Even then, I called Mitutoyo and got their assurance that they are genuine. Like everything I get from Amazon, because I was burned once, I check things out as soon as I get them and if they don't measure up, I immediately send the item(s) back for a refund. I've had to do that twice that I can remember in the last 5 yrs. or so.I see that but the description on down is this .
MSC bought enco- unfortunately. I used to get alot of stuff from them.
