"Heuer" Seafarer, Listed on Chrono24

We discussed this one back in July 2014, when it was listed for sale on ChronoTrader, at 15,900 Euro. Now it is listed for sale on Chrono24, with the asking price at 14,800 Euro.

We did not reach any conclusion about the authenticity . . . wondering whether there are new views on the issue?

To state the obvious -- I believe that this is the first Seafarer that we have seen, with the "Heuer" shield, rather than the Abercrombie & Fitch name. It would have been one hell of a task to remove the Abercrombie & Fitch name and replace it with the "Heuer" shield. Odd that the letter "f" collides with the shield. These photos (probably taken inside a white tent) do not show us any details of the finish of the dial. I'm not sure what to make of this one.
