Filling System Touchdown filler. We've replaced the sac and the O-ring. It's fully restored and working very well.

Nib MEDIUM 14k Feather Touch #5 nib is two-toned, fairly firm, and smooth with nice tipping material. The palladium masking is partially gone. The photographs make the nib look pretty worn, but in hand only the masking wear around the slit is all that noticeable.

There is a little nib wear and a gold filled mark on the section. The imprint is clear. The pen is fully restored and working well.
