I Need Help Valuing An Old Dunhill Pen

[fowler1591]

Hi, I came across an old pen of my grandfather's. I am guessing it is from the 80's. It's an old Dunhill rollerball with a weighted desk holder. The pieces separate. Does anyone know it's worth? Cost to restore? Is it any good? Etc.?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as it is the only thing I have of my grandfather.

Thank you,

Scott

If it's a roller ball it can't be too old. It is pretty near impossible to place any value on it. Restoration should just be a new refill; contact Dunhill with some good pictures and they may be able to suggest a source.

It's invaluable since it's the only thing you have left of your grandfather. Or was he such a jerk?

 

Besides the special personal value, Dunhill was and is a luxury brand and I'm not aware that they ever produced poor quality. In fact, they bought Montblanc in the 1970s and their pens were probably produced by Montblanc. Mine certainly look like it. The market value might not reflect the high quality (although I'm not a big fan of Montblanc).
