Description: HERE I AM OFFERING A BEAUTIFUL, VINTAGE "PORSCH DESIGN" TITANIUM COATED/PLATED ARC 1 PEN SET. THIS PEN SET INCLUDES THE ARC 1 FOUNTAIN PEN AND THE ARC 1 MECHANICAL BALLPOINT PEN, BOTH IN THEIR ORIGINAL WOODEN DISPLAY/STORAGE CASE (AS PICTURED). THE INCLUDED VINTAGE "PORSCHE DESIGN" ARC FOUNTAIN PEN IS THEIR MODEL NUMBER 182 AND THE MECHANICAL BALLPOINT PEN IS NUMBER 385. BOTH OF THESE QUALITY WRITING INSTRUMENTS WERE/ARE MADE IN WESTERN GERMANY. AS NOTED ABOVE, THIS PEN SET IS PART OF WHAT THEY CALLED THE "ARC" SERIES (BASED ON THE LARGE OVERSIZED AND "ARCED" POCKET CLIP). THESE POCKET CLIPS ARE SPRING LOADED. THIS IS DESIGNED SO THESE WRITING INSTRUMENTS WILL BITE DOWN ON CLOTH AND HOPEFULLY BE THERE WHEN IT IS CALLED UPON! THE CLIP ENDS OF THESE PENS (AS WITH ITS POCKET CLIP ITSELF) ARE POLISHED CHROME. BOTH PEN'S BARRELS HAVE NO VISIABLE SCRATCHES, DINGS, DENTS OR DISCOLORATION. THIS FOUNTAIN PEN IS, AS CLOSE TO PERFECT AS PERFECT AS ONE WOULD HOPE FOR! AS WITH A ROLLERBALL STYLE PEN, THE CAP IS REMOVED AND SLIDES DOWN ON THE OPPOSITE END WHEN IN USE. THIS WILL EXPOSE THE WRITING NIB, WHICH BEARS NO MARKINGS. HERE I ASSUME THAT IT IS A MEDIUM .... AS THIS IS THE MOST COMMON USED NIB. UPON REVIEWING MY PICTURES, I DID NOTICE THE THE TIP OF THE NIB SHOWS SOME WEAR. THIS AREA IS PICTURED AND WILL NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON IT'S WRITING. YOU HAVE THE OPTION OF USING DISPOSABLE INK CARTRIDGES (NON INCLUDED) OR USE YOUR OWN INK BY FILLING THE INCLUDED REFILLABLE BLATER. THE MECHANICAL BALLPOINT PEN IS TYPICAL OF MANY BALLPOINT PENS IS THAT YOU HAVE TO DEPRESS THE CLIPS END TO EXPOSE THE WRITING TIP. IT CLICKS AND LOCKS IN THE OPEN POSITION AND CLOSED/RETRACTED POSITION, WHEN NOT IN USE. THE "PORSCHE DESIGN" DESIGN STUDIO, LOCATED IN AUSTRIA, DESIGNED THESE ARC 1 WRITING INSTRUMENTS DECADES AGO AND FABER-CASTELL, A GERMAN BASED COMPANY, TURNED THESE PLANS INTO WHAT YOU SEE BEFORE YOU. THESE PENS ARE MANUFACTURED/ENGINEERED AND NOT SIMPLY MADE! THESE ARE GREAT PENS TO OWN AND IN MY OPINION, BUILT BETTER THEN MOST TO ALL WRITING INSTRUMENTS OF CURRENT DAY! PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY PICTURES AS THESE DO A FAR BETTER JOB OF SHOWING YOU EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THAT YOU WILL BE RECEIVING FROM ME VS. MY WORDS AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR WOULD LIKE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME DIRECTLY VIA EBAY MESSAGING AND I WILL GET BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS I READ YOUR MESSAGE.
