Is this Soubreny legit? And the boxes?

Hello everyone, I'm not familiar with the Soubreny, even if I bought and sold a couple in the past, and I have doubts about this, and especially the boxes it came with. Any advice?

Ligne 2 Windsor pattern

I've been trying to learn more about the Ligne 2 Windsor, but information seems surprisingly scarce, even among collector resources.

I'm hoping the experts here can help clarify a few points:

  • Were Windsor Ligne 2 lighters produced only as Grand Modèle, or was there also a Petit Modèle?
  • Which Laque de Chine colors were officially offered? Black seems to be the most common, but I've also seen a few examples with what appears to be gold dust lacquer. Those don't look entirely convincing to me, some are utterly fake with fake s/n, so I'm wondering whether they were ever an official production or are simply later refinishes or outright fakes.
  • Are there any catalogs, reference numbers, or production dates specifically covering the Windsor Ligne 2 range?

Any additional information, photos, or documentation would be greatly appreciated. It seems to be one of the least documented Ligne 2 variants, so I'd love to learn more.

Many thanks!

A good find

I think I found a gem this time, so I brag a bit: someone was selling this L2 Grand Modele Solitaire 16768 well under the standard quotation "because it's not working". Yes, OK, it has a small scratch but hey, nobody's perfect! Now I only have to take courage and service it.

Duponts in Berlin?

Hi, next wee I will be in Berlin for business for several days, but I will have some free moments so I was wondering if someone one here can share some interesting Dupont related shop I can visit. Of course I already checked the Dupont website for the addresses of the official shops, but I was thinking something more related to used lighters. Thanks for any advice you may have.

Ligne 2 Solitaire (Davidoff)

Hello everyone, I have as a target the Ligne 2 Solitaire, but before buying something that I will regret I have some questions for the most expert redditors here:

- I see it listed sometimes as a Davidoff model, but on the pieces I find online there is no Davidoff logo. It's Davidoff or not? I only see fakes?

- I see online two types, as in the pics I posted: one with the laquer that flows around the corners, sorry no better description, another with palladium plated corners. Which one is legit? Or both are?

- I cannot find "sold" ones on eBay or similar platforms, if you have any link for price reference I will appreciate

Thanks in advance for your advice

Fake, right?

Hi! the number is not on the list, but it's way too aligned in my opinion. Am I right? thanks for your opinion!

Montecristo USA lighters

Hello everyone, now and then on several platforms I see these lighters - images are only as an example - looking very similar to ST Dupont L2s, marketed under tghe brand "Montecristo USA". Sometimes the insertion claims that they are made "in collaboration with ST Dupont". Do you know if it's true, or they are Chinese production only resembling Duponts?

Help Identifying This Ligne 1 Pattern (Refs. 13359 / 14359)

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone here knows the name of the pattern of this nice lighter that I just received: in my 1975 S.T. Dupont catalog I found the ref number (refs. 13359 for PM and 14359 for GM), but the catalog does not mention the actual pattern name.

It looks somewhat like a variation of Quadrille with fine horizontal lines inside the squares, but I’ve never seen the proper French designation for it.

I add the catalog scan for reference.
