Hi George.

Entirely genuine, we have seen a few over the years. Heuer had a good relationship with Abercrombie & Fitch in the 50s and 60s.

I don't see any premium for A&F-marked dials, in part due to a lack of people specifically collecting A&F - there were a number of retailers added to Heuer dials and it doesn't really ever command a premium. Sporting events or military markings, yes, but not markings for retailers by and large - in the Heuer world at least. It's not like Comex appearing on a Rolex dial.
