Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a long, shiny pen in a great color combination that looks very classy and classic. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip as well as light to moderate scratching with a few small bite marks at the end. The very shiny cap and cap band have light scratching, but no dents. The clip has slight side-to-side play but it is firmly attached and not loose. Clip has some microscratching. The white dot is perfect. The imprints are clear.
