Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a beautiful, shiny pen in a lovely color combination. The section has long, thin scratch lines due to capping. The barrel has light to moderate scratching. There is a short scratch just under the clutch ring on the barrel, a few similar scratches mid-barrel, and a few near the end of the barrel. The cap has moderate microscratching with a smattering of shiny marks. The clip has microscratching on the arrow end. The clip ring has small pitting marks on either side of the top of the clip. The pearlescent jewel has microscratching. The imprints are clear.
