    Default Triumph 787

    A Triumph 787 from the late '80's. Missing a gold ring between the barrel and cap but this must have been expected as it closes perfectly. A not often seen pen.

    Regards

    I think I'd prefer it without the ring.

    Interesting. Does the one you have have the gold or gold plated nib?
    If it has the 14K nib there is a good chance it is an earlier cap with a later body.

    What a cool looking Sheaffer.

    And I agree with Fred, prefer the look without the ring.
