Looking at it casually it looks great. However it does show some wear. The back silver end pice has some slight nicks on the edge. The chrome tip also has a nick. On the back under the Cross name there is a slight nick(pic by my thumb). Under a magnifier the clip has faint a few faint scratches. Again, I never noticed this at first until I really looked at it. Otherwise it’s a good pen. It is writing in black so it doesn’t need refill right away. Examine pics for condition. Sold as is.
