Description from the seller

A0000004756

The S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 lighter in Legrand version presents an overall good condition, with visible signs of use consistent with its age, but maintaining fully its functionality and appeal.

The body shows the characteristic metal finish with a diamond-point pattern, which retains good definition across most of the surface. However, there are homogeneous wear marks on edges and more exposed areas, where the plating has lost intensity, especially on edges, corners and the upper perimeter. These marks are typical of continued use and contribute an authentic patina that reflects its history.

On the main planes there are micro-scratches and small wear spots, with no structural dents or deformations, indicating the piece has been used but properly preserved. The lateral ignition mechanism shows wear in the grooves, though it maintains correct and firm operation.

The cap opens and closes properly, with correct alignment, and the ignition is functional, as seen in the images. The bottom part shows more evident markings, including scratches around the loading screw, common in this type of piece due to handling for maintenance.

Overall, this is an original lighter with a very attractive vintage aesthetic, preserving its structural integrity and function, showing normal signs of use that do not affect its performance and are consistent with its category as a classic piece.

It will be shipped in a courtesy box for proper preservation.

Happy bidding!
