Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Montparnasse, large but not the largest size.
Manufacturer and Year S T Dupont, Paris -- late 1980s.

Filling System Takes a proprietary Dupont rollerball refill. It's similar to a standard ceramic rollerball refill, but is slightly longer. The section is internal, and released by a latch on the end of the barrel. Lift the little latch and turn it counter clockwise; this releases the section and allows access to the refill cartridge. The refill installed is working well.
Color Silver-plated in a lined pattern. Gold-plated trim with a black lacquer inset on the clip. The serial numner 57EFU47 is stamped on the left side of the clip.
Condition Excellent + condition. No dents or dings. There are touches of tarnish throughout, as the grooves make it hard to polish easily. There is a small scratch on the barrel end piece. There are small hints of wear at the end of the barrel, as well as on the gold-plated barrel ring. The imprints are sharp. No box or paperwork.
