Is it relevant whether it was a watch school or not?
Two types of scenarios I can imagine:
a) some guy with 2-3 years watchmaking experience puts together a watch from real Heuer parts, with some random mismatched pieces and some creative dial refinishing = prototype?
b) some other guy with 20-30 years watchmaking experience puts together a watch from real Heuer parts, with all the correct pieces = franken?
Why, just because the young guy is in a watch school and the old guy is in his workshop?
I can't really see any difference at all, except maybe I prefer watch (b) as Heuer usually* put things together in a nice way so sticking to their designs is likely to look good.
