Color Dark blue body with a brushed steel Lustraloy cap with a long arrow clip and a pearlescent cap jewel. There is a narrow trim band at the end of the section hood; previous versions had a clutch ring here that functioned to keep the cap attached, but the ring here is only decorative, not functional.

Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. The cap looks good with minimal scratching or shiny spots. The clip looks great. The end of the section and front of the barrel have moderate scratching likely caused by the cap lip. The rest of the barrel has light scratching. The imprints are clear.
