Product Name PFM ("Pen For Men") I

Filling System The snorkel works in combination with the Touchdown filling system. You unscrew the knob to extend the snorkel, pull out the piston, immerse it in ink, and push the piston down. Wait 10 seconds and allow the bladder to expand and pull the ink in. Then screw the knob to retract the snorkel, and you are good to go. No need to wipe ink off of anything!
We restored the filling system and tested it for leaks. We replaced the O-ring in the barrel as well as the ink sac.
Color Black with chrome trim
Nib The nib is a very smooth PdAg nib. It falls somewhere between a medium and a fine. The nib is in excellent condition with a nice round tip and no signs of wear. Excellent ink flow.
Condition Excellent with no cracks or chips or scratches. Light handwear only, a few light scratches on the trim.
