Condition Excellent + in box condition. No cracks, chips or personalization. The body and cap are in great condition, with minimal wear. The trim is very good; some some micro-scratching, a ring of brassing around the circumference of the clip ball, and two splotches on brassing on the pen cap band. Imprints look good, though the one that's parallel to the barrel is a bit more worn than the perpendicular imprint on the end.
