Is my arduino FAKE?

Development Tools IDE 1.x

Hello,
I bought my arduino in a well-known local online store, that is official DISTRIBUTOR of Arduino mentioned on this website.
Is it fake?
503P on the left - it seems it's fake... (It should be 501k I think...)
and the back - it's not white!
Here are the pics:

Then I would assume it's not a 'fake'. You might just be a little too obsessed with details? :wink:

Here is the 'official photo' from the products page showing a 503X thermofuse. But it's mounted backwards so it too may be a fake: :wink:

I'm pretty sure they have had the gold 503 made custom. SO it is most probably legit.

Then again I just got one in the arduino starter kit from RobotShop.com that has an infinity symbol on the thermistor

I have two UNOs, one is older, has the 504F marking on the fuse, and other purchased recently (same store) has the infinite sign :D. Fake2 ?
