AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A0000004607

The pen is presented in very good overall condition, with remarkable preservation both aesthetically and functionally. The body, made of metal with the guilloché finish characteristic of Cartier's Must collection, maintains a clean and uniform appearance, correctly preserving its original shine and the definition of the engraving, with no worn areas or significant material losses.

Only very slight micro-scratches of use are appreciated, typical of a piece previously handled, visible under close observation and in conditions of direct light, but in no case do they affect its overall presence or its appeal. These small marks are superficial and consistent with careful use.

The metal elements, including the tip, the clip, and the Trinity decorative rings, are in very good condition, with excellent preservation of the finish and no deformations or dents. The clip maintains good tension and alignment, ensuring proper functionality.

The writing system operates correctly, with smooth and precise actuation, in line with Cartier’s quality standards.

The upper emblem and engravings are well defined, contributing authenticity and character to the piece. The pen also comes with its original Cartier box, in good condition, with light signs of use in keeping with the passage of time, which adds value to the set.

Overall, it is an elegant and well-preserved piece, ideal both for use and for collection.

Care recommendations

To keep the piece in optimal condition, it is recommended to use high-quality compatible refills, avoid drops or impacts, store the pen in a dry place protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, and operate the mechanism gently to preserve its proper function over time.
