Here's the way I think it goes (off the top of my head; without any research or digging):

-- Heuer produced the Time of Trip, as first dashboard timer, around 1915 . . . under the name Heuer

-- In 1933, Heuer wanted to produce a new version of its 8-day dashboard clock, and Heuer sourced the movements from an independent company, Revue Thommen; the movement was called the "Revue Thommen GT"

-- Heuer decided to call its new 8-day dashboard clock the "Hervue", some loose combination of the names "Heuer" and "Revue". I believe that Heuer and Revue were fully independent of each other, and Heuer used the name to emphasize that the clock had the Revue movement.

: Thanks again, Stewart,

: I must admit I am a bit of an Angenou as far as watches are
: concerned. Although I have a couple of M/T's and M/C's (and An
: Omega from a 21st. Birthday present many years ago), my interest
: comes only from RallyTimers and financial self-interest.
: However, thank you for the informative link. I have never before
: seen this about the origin of the Family, hence the Brand name.
: But, being controversial, this begs a few questions.

: How did the name Hervue come about? Surely a corruption of Heuer?
: Was there a common supplier of cases, backplates, screws and
: threads to both Heuer and the Waldenburg Clock Company (since
: 1853) , or
: Was there some collaborative arrangement between the two
: manufacturers at some point in time?

: Both types of backplates, round and square, seem to fit all Motor
: and Marine clocks and stopwatches.
: Finally, in Accessories, the early type of backplate seem to be
: only of 3 holes. However there is no reference to a circular
: backplate. (Navia?)

: Interestingly, the 1910 Chronograph in the Master reference Code
: has an identical script-type and hand- design to the Revue we
: are talking about.

: Please understand, I am only having a bit of fun to what some might
: consider to be a fairly semantic issue!
: My only 'defence' seems to be that one other contributor (Michwor)
: seems to have an identical clock.

: Kindest Regards
