Filling System Snorkel filling pen. We've restored it with a new sac, point gasket and o-ring, and we'll send instructions on how to use this filling system. The pencil takes 0.9mm (or "Thin") leads, which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism. Both pen and pencil are working very well, and we'll include a small packet of leads for the pencil.
Color Black with gold plated trim, 3/8-inch wide cap bands, and white dots above the clips.
Nib MEDIUM (M-5) two-tone Triumph 14k nib.
Condition Excellent condition, in box, with paperwork and with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a beautifully preserved, velvety black, shiny pen and pencil set. The fountain pen cap and barrel have light to moderate scratching. The barrel has a number of long, thin scratch lines as well as a few other small marks. This scratching affects the appearance of the barrel, slightly dulling the shine. The cap band and clip have light microscratching. The white dot is perfect. The mechanical pencil barrel has one long scratch that stands out; otherwise it looks fantastic. The cap has an small area of short scratches to the right of the top of the clip; otherwise it looks excellent. Both the cap and barrel have a few long, thin scratches. The cap band and clip have light microscratching. The white dot has a small triangle of discoloration near the top. The imprints on both pieces are clear.
