The Sheaffer Imperial Touchdown presented is in remarkably good condition, especially considering its age and the delicate design characteristic of this series. The inlaid nib, one of the most distinctive features of the Imperial line, retains a clean, shiny surface with no visible deformations, maintaining the correct conical profile and impeccable alignment between the iridium tip and the metal body. The feed shows its deep fins in excellent condition, with no dried ink residues or structural wear. The body, in an elegant burgundy tone, exhibits a continuous and uniform shine, with minimal signs of micro-use, no dents or cracks, and fully maintains its original geometry. The transition between the body and the metal section is firm and free of play, confirming that the Touchdown mechanism is adjusted and operational. The metallic finish of the nib section remains well-polished, with no noticeable corrosion or material loss. The brushed steel cap displays a uniform satin finish, preserving its classic Sheaffer texture without areas of excessive wear. The chrome clip maintains its original alignment and tension, fitting correctly without any looseness. The famous 'white dot'—a symbol of the brand's guarantee—remains intact and well-centered. The engravings 'Sheaffer – Made in U.S.A.' are clear and fully legible, with no smoothing from use. Overall, this Sheaffer Imperial Touchdown offers a very refined aesthetic and outstanding mechanical integrity. It is a piece with a higher-than-usual level of preservation, ideal for both collection and refined use, and absolutely suitable to be presented as a premium piece that is perfectly functional within the vintage fountain pen market. It will be sent in a courtesy box for its proper preservation.
