I am selling a Sheaffer Balance Oversize with Long Ink Window that is in excellent condition. It has been restored by Garry Berg, a master pen repairman.
Pen has amazing transparency, ink window looks perfect and brand-new.
Nib: Oversize Lifetime Nib, 14k gold. It is a medium nib, firm, and very smooth.
Cap and Body: Excellent condition, no cracks or damages.
The only damage is some deep scratches on the filling knob, which is shown.
They are not cracks and have been very stable for the several months that I have owned and lightly used the pen.
Filling system: Amazing, restored vacuum filling system (similar and superior to the Visconti power-fill) that holds 2.5 mL of ink!!
Typical converters hold less than 1mL of ink. The pen and filling system has been restored by a renowned pen restorer.
Trim: Gold plated trim is in perfect condition. No brassing or damage, appears unused. Slight issue is that the cap bands are a little loose, meaning it can spin in its cap groove place. However, the capband is perfectly secure and should never fall off. If perfection is required, they can be sent to a pen repairman to be tightened for a low price. Such servicing will be the customer's decision.
Price is $140 plus $5 for shipping to CONUS, international buyers inquire. Payment by Paypal.
