Reference / Edition: Sheaffer PFM V (Pen For Men V), latest version of the PFM series. Snorkel filling system: by turning the end of the barrel a retractable tube emerges under the nib. Inlaid 14k gold nib
Length: 13.6 cm
Diameter: 1.25 cm
Nib: F
Period: 1959-1968
Materials: Polished black resin body, gold-plated cap with fine vertical guilloché lines and clip with white circular end, gold rims and hardware, 14-carat gold-inlaid nib with diamond decoration
Condition: Very good condition. The black body retains a strong shine, with no cracks or appreciable deformations. The gold cap shows crisp engraving and the mark "SHEAFFER'S" clearly legible, with slight signs of use and small surface scratches typical of age, without severe wear to the plating. The gold nib appears intact and aligned, with light traces of dried ink in the area of the feed. Piece looks well cared for. The Snorkel system includes sac and internal seals which, due to age, may require adjustment by a professional; it is sold as is.
Complements: Only the loose piece; no box or papers visible in the photos.
