Condition Excellent + condition. There is some microscratching on the cap and barrel, but no cracks, chips, dings, dents, personalization, or plating wear. We couldn't find any evidence that the pen has been inked. The F mark on the nib section looks great. There are some tiny marks on the White Dot. The nib masking is perfect. These modern Balance marbled pens can be fragile, but we examined it carefully for cracks and could find none.
