AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Cross Classic Century set, consisting of a pen and mechanical pencil, is presented in very good overall condition, notable for a late 20th-century set.

Both pieces retain a uniform matte black finish, with a consistent matte texture and no material loss. No dents, cracks, or deformations are visible. The visible wear is minimal and limited to slight superficial signs of use, perceptible only upon close inspection and consistent with careful handling.

The golden hardware (clip, central rings, tips, and terminals) maintains a clean and continuous shine, with very slight wear at the usual contact points, without significant loss of plating or corrosion. The engraved CROSS clip is well aligned and securely attached to both pieces.

The pen operates its retractable mechanism correctly by twisting, with smooth and precise functioning. The tip fits well and shows no looseness.

The mechanical pencil functions correctly, with regular lead advancement and a firm mechanism. The tip and internal system are well adjusted, with no signs of mechanical fatigue.

Overall, it is a well-preserved Cross Classic Century set, aesthetically appealing and fully functional, suitable for both elegant daily use and collection or gifting, especially valuable when presented with its original case and documentation.

Good auction!
