Hello everyone, I’m servicing—or at least trying to service—this small L1 BS for a friend. It belonged to his mother.

Unfortunately, when I put the slider back in, after removing the flint and grinding wheel, the slider seems to have caught on something. It is now stuck in a position where it can only slide back and forth to a certain point and won’t travel all the way, as you can see in the pictures. I already tried to apply a generous amount of WD40 without any result,.

Any advice on how to fix this without causing any damage? I’m much more experienced with BRs, so I’m a bit out of my comfort zone here.

Thanks in advance!

For sale is this beautiful S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 Grand Modèle, ref. 14310, with 20-micron gold plating and the classic Pointe de Diamant pattern.

Most likely dating from the early 1970s, it is in exceptionally good condition for its age. The gold plating is still bright and very well preserved, the guilloché remains crisp, and the bottom plate has a particularly beautiful mirror finish.

Finding an early Ligne 1, now more than 50 years old, in this condition and still accompanied by its original accessories is becoming increasingly difficult.

Full set: original S.T. Dupont box + booklets.

The lighter is fully functional, holds gas correctly and produces a good flame.

Price: €220

Located in Italy.
Shipping: Italy for free / €20 EU / €35 UK & rest of Europe. For other destinations, please ask.
Payment via PayPal G&S or bank transfer.

Hello everyone, I'm writing to ask your advice about how to clean the latest addiction to my palladium Duponts: I always had problems cleaning the brossè finish, and in this case I'm scared to ruin the rubber. For now I passec it with an air compressor and it blown away part of the dust, but still it's dirty. Do you have any advice? Water alone? Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, I found this palladium and black laquer L1 and, since I have a softspot for palladium Duponts, I did'nt resisted. I am posting it here because it's a model that I never saw anywhere: I knew about palladium and black laquer L1s, but not with the laquer roller. Does anyone has a clue about the name and ref number of this model? Unfortunately the previous owner lost the outer carton box where usually the model label is, and on the warranty card there are only the date of purchase - 24.12.2004 - and the tobacconist stamp.

I’ve decided to sell most of my Gatsby collection. I’m only keeping the palladium-plated models and the lacquer patterns that imitate wood grain.

The following lighters are available, listed as shown in the photo, from top left and proceeding row by row:

1. Gold-plated Clou de Paris – Ref. 18260 — €280
2. Gold-plated Lignes Verticales – Ref. 18237 — with box, has engraved initials — SOLD
3. Green Chinese lacquer & gold-plated — with box, has engraved initials — €350
4. Écaille Jaspée – Ref. 18536 — with box, has engraved initials — €320
5. Gold-plated Cascade — €280
6. Silver-plated Lignes Recoupées — €280
7. Blue Chinese lacquer & gold-plated – Ref. 18575 — €250
8. Gold-plated Effet Mat-Brillant — €350
9. Ambre lacquer & gold-plated – Ref. 18577 — €280

11. Black Chinese lacquer & gold-plated – Ref. 18574 — €220

Fossil Coral?

Hi! My son found this in Apella beach in Karpathos, Greece, and nagged me to scan it with Rockidentifier which says it's fossil coral. Any chance this is true?

Precisely in Michaliou Kipos beach. Anyone here knows anything about it?

After the family goes back to the beach half a Toscano and some ouzo it's what you need. And a good book.

From my collection, I'm offering this S.T. Dupont USB key, reference 5677, finished in palladium with the Pointe de Diamant pattern.

A rather uncommon accessory from the mid-2000s, featuring a 1GB USB drive integrated into a metal keyring with its original removable cap.

What makes this example particularly interesting is its provenance: it was originally purchased in September 2007 from the S.T. Dupont boutique at 58 Avenue Montaigne, Paris, with the original dated and stamped warranty card included.

Complete with:

• Original presentation box
• Original removable cap
• Stamped warranty card
• Original booklet and documentation

Hi, a family relation has this Ligne D since 1999, still perfectly working. She remembers that the plating has some particularly, but she doesn't remember exactly and unfortunately she lost the outer box so I have no clue about the pattern, reference number, etc. Do you know anything more?

Just arrived, unfortunately without box but still a good find. I'm still deciding if to keep it or not.

Hello everyone,

I’ve never seen this pattern before, and something about this lighter—especially the serial number—makes me think it is fake, but I'd really like to have found a rare pattern ehehehe

What do you think: genuine or counterfeit?

Thanks in advance for your opinions.

I'm offering for sale a piece from my personal collection: a 1993 S.T. Dupont Ligne 2 Grand Modèle "Art Nouveau" Limited Edition, serial 0316/4000.

This example is in excellent overall condition. The lacquer is exceptionally well preserved with a deep, glossy finish, while the gold plating remains bright and attractive, showing only light, honest signs of careful use consistent with its age.

Mechanically, it is exactly as it should be:
