A friend of mine has the lacquer one where it 3 dimensional strips in horizontal sections. Really nice looking, but she has the cigarette tip. The ST Dupont’s just beg for the cigar tip!

Not only are the lighters expensive, but they need servicing every 5-6 years at $50 a service.

I have had a few ST Dupont’s in my day. Their belts, shirts, ties, and cuff links are awesome too.

You can find them used quite regularly and if you want to spend $50-100 on service you can own a nice lighter for under $200 with some poking around. Lacquer ones will be more expensive.
