Hi, I got the silver one for my birthday and I am wondering if its a fake or if its genuine. In the 1984/85 catalogue I can see that there is no arrow on the second time teller. Also the text doesn't stand in the correct order ( like the word "Professional" stands at the top, but in the catalogue it stands at the bottom).

Hi. As you would have seen, there are two versions of the Heuer Airline- a 24 hour version (with the complicated bracelet) and the simpler 12-hour version which you have.

I'm on the road at the moment, but I'm quite confident that both of these are genuine- ref 895.513 and Ref 896.513

Heuer changed quite a few of the details every couple of years, it's not unusual that a few of the details differ.
