AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This unusual Zippo TIME-FLASH combines a brushed metal body, orange trim, compass and thermometer in one compact tool.
[Appearance]
This is a Zippo TIME-FLASH multi-function survival tool, a rather different piece from the usual Zippo lighter and a fun item for a broader Zippo collection.
The brushed metal upper surface is fitted with circular instruments, while the body has distinctive orange-colored trim and a large key ring. According to the original presentation display, the TIME-FLASH was equipped with five functions: LED light, thermometer, compass, quartz watch, and reflecting mirror.
Light scratches, rubbing, small marks, and signs of age or storage can be seen on the metal and presentation box. There is also some visible wear around the box hardware and interior. These age-related details are present, but the set still displays very nicely, and having the dedicated TIME-FLASH presentation box gives the piece plenty of character.
The Japanese insert describes it as a special limited specification, and the original ¥10,000 price tag is also visible. The survival-tool concept is wonderfully unusual for Zippo and makes this one quite a conversation piece.
Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.
[Functionality]
The LED light, thermometer, compass, quartz watch, reflecting mirror, and other functions have not been fully tested and are not guaranteed.
As this is a vintage collectible item, an overhaul or professional maintenance is recommended for long-term use.
[Accessories]
The TIME-FLASH presentation box, Japanese paperwork, original price tag, additional metal fitting in the plastic bag, and other items shown in the photos are included.
Everything shown in the photos is included.
Flint and gas will be removed before shipping.
Please refill before use.
[Shipping]
The item will be carefully packed and shipped internationally by FedEx or a similar tracked international courier.
Import duties, taxes, and customs fees vary by country and are the buyer’s responsibility. Please check your local customs regulations before purchasing.
