Filling System Fountain pen takes Parker cartridges, or can be used with the included vintage Parker converter. The ballpoint takes Parker-style ballpoint refills, and one is included.
Color "Flighter" brushed steel bodies and caps with gold-plated trim. The fountain pen has a black end piece.
Nib MEDIUM 14k gold nib is in great condition with nice tipping material. It feels very smooth, and has just a tiny bit of bounce to it.
Condition Both pieces of the set are in excellent condition. The fountain pen has hardly any wear, just a couple of small, light scratches on the cap, no dents or dings. Hardly any scratching in the section, but it's just a tiny bit warped looking (typical P45 shrinkage). The ballpoint has a very small dent in its cap, just to the right of the clip, and a few tiny spots of pitting barely visible on the cap and on the tip of the pen. The gold plated trim looks beautiful on both pens, with hardly a spot of wear. They're both very clean and make a very attractive set in their original box (though the box is fairly worn, with writing on the inside of it). Both are working perfectly.
