Condition:
Very nice condition with no cracks or personalization. The barrel color is very nice and there is good visibility (as shown) with just a bit of ambering. The major cap band is in excellent condition. The blue diamond split arrow clip is firm  and black cap jewel is in good condition with no chips. The barrel imprints are clearly readable, with just a touch of hand wear. The barrel date is “3”.  The pen has been throughly cleaned, a new diaphragm has been installed, the section threads properly sealed; the pen fills great - it's ready for ink.
