Condition and function

Later Rover. Brushed panels scuffed on the reverse, front face good. Priced to reflect the marks.

Patina is described rather than hidden. Nothing here has been replated or refinished to look newer than it is.

Fuel and care

Takes
Butane gas, refined

Refilling
Valve underneath. Purge the old air out first, fill in short bursts, then leave it two minutes before striking.

Lighters are posted empty because postal rules require it, so whichever you buy will need filling before it works.

Every lighter is fully stripped, cleaned, rebuilt with worn parts replaced, and flame tested before it is listed. The lit photograph on each page is that lighter, working, after the rebuild. All of it done by hand in Leeds, and posted Royal Mail first class with the fuel emptied out.
