Vintage Gold S.T. Dupont Lighter 1970's with original box and manual

The lighter sold for $325 8/15/22 and I made a nice $125 profit after fees.
I will be looking for the next DuPont Lighter since I have the adapter to refill and plenty of butane.
These lighters are amazing and I know why they sell for so much brand new.

What a beauty! Whoever bought this from you is a lucky guy and 325 seems like a good price for a Ligne 1 in that condition. Love that it comes with the original box. I bought a new Ligne 1 five years ago. Since this model line has been discontinued you must be really lucky to find one brand new. But there are small chances. I recently found a "new" Ligne D in my local tobacco store and am tempted to pull the trigger.

I miss it and I have had a hard time finding a replacement.

Haha i use my grandads i inherited everyday. Its the most amazing sounding best built quality. And it has his initials, love it.

[@chaicharin]

That's awesome!

Show the serial number, engraving underneath and color code on the refill cap

Here in Chile, i just got a variation of that Ligne 1 small, it's pretty similar but a bit older than yours, i think is 1970 or somthing, The flame regulator is waaay smaller and to access the gas it's requieres and flat screwdriver. I was battling for a week to get the adapter and refill it, and now i can wait amazon take me the adapter. Same 20u gold coated and patern.

[@chaicharin]

The Amazon adapter did not work for me since it did not fit well on the butane plastic red tip. I hope yours works for you. I had to return mine back to Amazon and had better luck on Ebay for the adapter part.

That's pretty cool. 👍👍

[@Agrippa31BC]

Got the exact same DuPont LoL

[@Jezee213]

It's a beauty!

[@chaicharin]

I want to get another one. I ended up selling this for $325 on Ebay for a nice profit.

Hard to beat the ting of a zippo!!!

[@Elbowbanditest2003]

The st dupont ting does destroy it, but its a different weight class.

[@samibaker1971]

I have one made in 1962 they are the same

[@chaicharin]

Does it still work?

[@samibaker1971]

Unfortunately no

[@neuralapparition]

I also have a gold line 1 1962 St dupont Paris lighter with its owner Manual and box. It used to work but havent used it after I checked it's rare. I'm actually looking to sell it

[@alimorales6877]

Tengo una fosforera de esas enchapada en oro cuánto me dan por ella

[@chaicharin]

If it works you should be able to get $150+ for it

[@emgg74]

How much is one of those lighters worth today?

[@chaicharin]

$350 which is still a deal considering the brand new ones are double the price. I think it is cool that something that old still works.

[@rafaeltorre1643]

@@chaicharin They can and will last forever. I rebuilt them daily on my extra time. Easy to service, its the knowledge and education (experience) thats the hard part. All you need is to replace the o-ring gaskets, filter, and properly clean and time everything. I just finished one of my most beautiful ones today. Mint gold strips. I love Rollagas ones better. But I love all vintage. They won’t make anything like these again.

[@rafaeltorre1643]

With legalization they will make better quality lighters.
