your best bet is to head over to zilvia.net and ask over there, their fanbase is more knowledgable on real or fake seats

They are fake, on genuine Bride seats the tilt adjuster knobs on the side are recessed into the seat further into the side brackets. On these there is no recess for them, just straight up and down. Also the bride logo in the gradation isn't centred and is on an angle.

They're fake :/ the engraving of the bride symbol isnt right, the B is all wrong

This is what a real bride seat looks like...
