Your welcome. Yes, there are many incorrect and tampered with Heuer and Heuer Leonidas SA on the market. These are the FrankenHeuers. This has been one of the goals of the Forum and OTD. To present a knowledgeable group of collectors to give their opinions and help each other. Also to assist and guide the novice collector. This makes better Heuer Collecting for all involved. Good collecting, Charles.
