Color Black striated with gold plated trim ... the 14k (marked) cap band is approx. 7/8" wide. White dot.
Nib Medium 14k two-toned Lifetime Triumph nib, smooth and firm.
Condition Excellent condition. Both barrel and cap have a fair bit of microscratching and handwear, slightly dulling the surface. There is decent visibility through the barrel. The cap band is nice and shiny and has only some microscratching and small areas of brassing. Clip has brassing and plating loss. The section looks good; the section threads have lost a fair bit of plating. Imprints are clear. Nib masking is excellent. No cracks or chips.
