It is an interesting topic.
Do you think also a possibility they are from another dial maker, or the same dial maker just using a different "cliche" to print the sub dials for a short time? It is odd they did not use script with serif but I suspect not without exception. It is interesting to note all 85/86 serials and this would lead thoughts to a "batch" otherwise why are all transitional 3rd exec dials all serif dials and then later all serif dials too?

: I agree with what others have written -- these are not
: especially beautiful (to my eye) or especially rare. They are
: only "different", which makes them interesting, at
: least to me.
: Yes, we have probably seen fewer than 10 of them, but that is
: probably because we have not always been noticing them or
: counting them.
: My assumption is that this was an anomaly / error / misprint, that
: was not intended by Heuer.
: For those who may be interested, here is the full copy of the
: advertisement showing this execution.
