The dual CR3032 version has been around since 2011:
New HP12C that uses 2 batteries, and is blazing fast.

From Tim Wessman's post in the thread quoted above:
"The are identical part numbers as the old one (same product - transparent to the end user. . .) "

So unfortunately no easy way to identify. However, they've been around for 6 years so I would expect that by now most stores would be selling the dual CR2032 battery version - but nothing is guaranteed of course.

I can't vouch for the buttons or display. It's not the same as the eighties model of course, but as people's perception of good & bad differs it's not easy to be impartial on this.
