Condition Excellent + condition. The lever has a bit of brassing, but the rest of the trim is in really good shape. The body of the pen is smooth, no cracks, chips, or personalization. Imprint is nice and clear. The cutouts in the barrel and cap give you a nice view of the inside of the pen, and it's fun to watch the sac compress and expand when you raise and lower the lever.
This pen has a nib and sac installed. Be aware that there are two cutout circles in the cap, so this pen may be prone to drying out between uses.
