Condition
|
Excellent condition. The hard rubber has lightened slightly and the chasing is just a little smooth. The imprints are readable. The trim is in good condition, with some wear. This pen writes very smoothly with a pleasing amount of flex. The filling system is working well, we re-sac'd it and we'll guarantee it for two years. |
