Default Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb reissue VS. modern

I'm looking for Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb "reissue". They also make a new version which "not reissue" but they look the same from what I can tell on pics. Can't see them for real because no one has them here in Australia.
As I don't want to get scammed, how can I tell which is the real "reissue"?
Does it say anywhere on it? I'm talking about the "reissue" with Jensen in it but not the hand wired version which cost over the top. Thanks for any info.

There's the 65 Deluxe Reverb reissue and the 68 reissue - all tube, based on the classic/original DR, albeit PCB rather than handwired. They've been out for a few years now and run around £1300 for the 65 RI & £1100 for the 68.

Fender recently released the Tonemaster Deluxe Reverb which is part digital, lighter than the all tube versions and costs around £800. It also has power scaling so you can reduce the volume without losing the tone. Haven't tried one but I hear that they're very good. I'm actually considering one of these myself.

The one you want has a black control panel instead of "brushed aluminum". As far as the PCB/hand wired difference, if you can afford it then either it's the cheaper one or you're getting the hand wired one.
