Color The color is black. Shiny stainless steel cap with an arrow clip, chrome plated trim, and black cap jewel as is common on Specials.

Condition Excellent condition. Handwear and a few marks on the cap, but no dents or dings. There are some marks of plating wear on the clip tassies. The aerometric sac looks fantastic with absolutely no ink residue. It could potentially have never been filled with ink. The barrel also looks really good. No personalization. It's working very well.
