Heuer Helmet - ONS-Staffel

I bought this Heuer Helmet at auction at the weekend.

Having read this helpful article, I know a little about the ONS-Staffel but I wondered whether anyone knew any more about the helmet itself?

It's not in the Heuer catalogues (1977 or 1978 with the other standard models) although I'm aware of a few other models that weren't in the catalogues.

The only similar example I've seen was a box rather than a clock that accompanied the Montreal belonging to Stefan Bellof. Unfortunately the links to the photos in the post no longer work but I've copied an image found on google below.
