1960 Heuer Chronograph authenticity?

Hi all

I need a spot of help finding out whether or not my vintage Heuer chronograph is a fake. I bought this watch 18 months ago from a reputable jeweller and had not initial concerns as to the provenance. It was sold a 1960 chronograph with a refurbished a dial. After a minor repair, its authenticity was called into question and I'd like to know if my graduation present is indeed a fake.

I hope some of you learned gentlemen can help me out.
