So we can speculate about who made them, and how and when they made them, but our definitive answer is that they were not made by or for Heuer.
As they say on the detective shows, "Case closed!"

: Hi all,
: Interesting discussion about these fake, re-issue and other dials.
: Where does quality ends and where do we accept a lower finishing
: as ok? I don't want to judge a company, but anyway the quality
: of the Heuer dials varies. This just means that the acceptance
: process wasn't a fixed process, but the (no) go decision was
: made/based on a personal feeling.
: It'possible that the dials as seen in the examples of Jeff are slip
: offs, used while servicing or replacing an old sticky dial. On
: what do I base my opinion :
: - no large quantities are known
: - variety in dials - different service points ?
: - cases are often original
: - these dials are often seen while using service hands
: Best regards from Belgium,
: Gianni
