Product Description
Type Rollerball pen.
Product Name Classique product line.
Manufacturer and Year S T Dupont, France -- circa 1970s
Length 5-1/2"
Filling System This pen takes S T Dupont rollerball or fiber tip cartridges. The S T Dupont refills are similar to a standard ceramic rollerball refill, but are slightly longer. A working ST Dupont cartridge is installed.
Color Sterling silver plated with a sort of stacked ring appearance on the barrel. (We assume it is silver plated and not solid sterling silver since it lacks a hallmark.) Black resin section. The clip is stamped with the serial number 5K5LL77.
Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a shiny, shimmery silver pen that has good weighting and that is elegant. As is common with silver, there is some microscratching on the cap and barrel. The clip looks great, with just microscratching and polishing marks. Under magnification, we see a tiny bit of tarnishing in the "valleys" of the grooves on the cap and barrel. The gold-plated trim ring on the section also looks good, with no brassing or plating wear. The imprints are clear.
