Heuer 1153S "Mclaren World Champions 1974"

These are so extremely rare that I was pretty surprised to see one appear on eBay yesterday. I couldn't really justify paying the huge premium over a standard 1153S so I passed on it, but it seems to have sold just now for full asking price (5K GBP). Last known sale for one seems to have been 1400 GBP back in 2003 at a Bonhams auction.

What do people here think... was it a good deal ?
