Heuer Bundeswehr Serial Numbers
Hello and thanks for looking.
I had sent a picture of my recently acquired Heuer Bund to an acquaintance and he pointed out that the watch did not appear to have one of the known dial variations in the very informative article 'A pictoral review of the Heuer Bundeswehr chronograph and it's many dial variations' on Brown-Snout.com . The difference is that the 3H on my dial is large font, but the dial of my watch does not have the cut off numerals and also has the small 'T' which again is not a variation covered in the article except in the short sentence that follows:

That said, it is arguable that the best indicators for whether a watch is from the '60s, and most true to the Bundeswehr specification, are:
- the presence of the standard sized Heuer logo
- either a standard 3H-symbol, or a T-symbol, or both
- the presence of the standard sized font
However, a few have been seen with unusual variations in the style of the 3H-symbol. Perhaps Heuer changed the 3H printing screens at some point in production? Perhaps these 3H-symbols were added by the unscrupulous?

After searching the net for images and additional articles, I was able to find a few images of Bunds with similar dials, but no articles or posts confirming that the dial variation was known/legitimate or not. Thus my post here. I would greatly appreciate any feedback on the watch. Thanks again for looking and for your time.

The Heuer Bundeswehr Flyback Chronograph is the latter. Rolex Milsub, Omega SM300, they’re great and all, but smart money is on the German military issued wrist-tank with a legitimate complication. This pilot chronograph issued to the Luftwaffe in the late 1960s and 70s has become one of the most iconic military watches on the market.
