Second Execution Ref 15640 Skipper; Black Dial and Bezel
In Response To: Re: This One is Genuine; Can be Blue or Black Dial ()

Alex:

Very simple -- in the second execution of the 15640, Heuer continued with the 11630 case, but switched to a black dial and bezel. At this point, they also changed the hands, from orange to white. Then, in the third execution, they kept the black and white color scheme, rather than the blue and orange, but switched to the larger case (11063).

See below; catalogs describe the black dial -- 1978 catalog; 1981 catalog; and the watch itself.
