Stamping on the rear bud, knock offs will be stamped mx1000a at best. Genuine DC brakes are well stamped with date and model number. Genuine ones are a bit more sturdy to touch if that makes sense?  ???

Genuine callipers will also be stamped 'Dia Compe' where the jelly bean decal is placed. They will also have a quick release fitted (some snides do too).
