Dupont Lighters I’m looking to move on. There’s a lot to the world of luxury lighters, I’ll spare the all boring details and general info/history, and hopefully this’ll catch the eye of someone who knows what they’re looking at. And maybe even the eye of someone who wants to buy their first Honestly I’d be surprised if there isn’t a decent amount of interest, I mean I got into Dupont lighters originally because in many ways it was like the gold I stacked. These are a part of history, shiny, plated in precious metals, amazing to feel and hold, probably more eye catching to regular people than coins are, so definitely a conversation starter. Not to mention amazingly well made. I’m putting up for sale 2 of them, perhaps more eventually. (the rest are also pictured in a couple photos). First one.. Bi-colour Brushed Silver and Gold Plated S.T. Dupont Ligne 2 small $800 IMG_2848 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2847 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2850 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2838 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2839 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2840 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2844 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM IMG_2845 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:15 PM 37 x 11 x 56 mm (same size as ST Dupont Gatsby) Stunning. Very rare, very special. No leaks. Perfect working condition. Excellent vintage condition. Not perfect, but better than 99% of examples you can find. Amazing condition actually considering you can’t buy this one anymore and haven’t been able to for a long while. I actually have this same design also in the Ligne 2 Large (37 x 11 x 62 mm). Together they’re a “his and hers”, I might sell them together if you’re interested but otherwise I will be keeping it or selling it separately at a later stage. This one doesn’t “ping”. Not all Duponts do, such as the more interesting designs like this one If you’re only in it for the sound, keep in mind that fakes ping louder than most real ones anyway. However, I do have the following, which has a beautiful ping upon opening.. S.T. Dupont Ligne 2 Montparnasse Silver — $750 IMG_1601 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:16 PM IMG_1606 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:16 PM IMG_1603 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:16 PM IMG_1602 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:16 PM IMG_1604 Resized by joe posted Oct 24, 2020 at 4:16 PM 37 x 11 x 62 mm This one’s still a current model available to buy new, retails for almost $1000 AUD. Very good condition. Not perfect but again, most of my collection is in better nick than others for sale on the second hand market. This one has a loud, crystal clear ping sound upon opening, if that’s your thing. It’s nice for sure, though. Regarding authenticity: One way to tell (or rather the main way) real and fake Duponts apart... The copies are just very easy to tell apart with their clumsy, badly stamped, primitive, huge serial numbers. There is a world of difference. You may know this already otherwise feel free to do some research. Anyway, I do not own any fakes/copies/replicas. I’ll include some adapters for refilling with butane of your choice, use a high quality one please. Dupont/Dunhill butane highly recommended but you should be fine to stray as long as it’s known to be very pure, ultra refined etc. I like Newport. Comes with a bunch of adapters that suit Dupont/Dunhill as well. Onto the rest: Sold most of my other 1oz gold coins so not as urgent now.
