Filling System Snorkel filler. We've restored it with a new O-ring, point casket and sac, and it's working very well. We'll send instructions on how to use the snorkel system.

Nib FINE Triumph style nib marked F4, palladium silver, though it's unmarked. It's smooth with nice tipping remaining. A notable "Waverly" upturn
Condition Very nice condition. There are some small scratches and marks on the cap and barrel, including a ring of light wear near the end of the barrel from posting the cap, and some tooth marks on the cap. There's also a tiny crack from where the clip is anchored into the cap to the white dot, and as a result the clip has a little play from side to side, but it's held firmly in place . There's a touch of brassing on the edge of the cap band. No chips, dings, dents, or personalization. It's fully restored and working well.
