I'm not a collector, and not a fan, but decided on the advice of the Chief flooding this site upload pictures of these two lighters)) on the left Silver Plate Veneciano (sorry if you made a mistake in spelling), Item 1996 edition went through fire and water, silver with her almost got off that is visible even when fotosemke, body, severe bruising (down from 2nd floor) but the hinge does not fall off, and still pleases machine work! Right, it is almost the same age, Jim Beam 1997 with birth wiped to a shine lining, lighter series and young enough, because at the exclusive collection or a miraculously preserved rarity can not apply, but they are expensive to me))) is now saving up for a silver replica, but it is probably not soon ...

No, of course not left, read carefully, and noted, again, until the coins to purchase only delayed because immediately run to the link and do not order from the hands, but many thanks for the answer))) 11-12 tyrov really expensive, even though he is such that when light up, then overpay 2-3 thousand (two regular Zippo brand new) do not matter, just to quickly grab a stranglehold in the search))) And here's a question: I want to buy for everyday use, the silver (rumored to be softer ) whether to take replica or should pay attention to the body in the performance of normal Armor?

It's not really about scratches and fingerprints, to that I just prepared)) I did not mean it will pop riveting inetensivnoy loops in operation? certainly fall from a balcony, as happened with silver machine will be eliminated, but a fall of human growth curves of the hands will be exactly, maybe working as a driver, the quiet life in the home or office warm lighter dark)))

I believe that on the shelf lighter can be reached only by proving that deserves to Example 2 of the sample from the beginning of this topic may well retire peacefully and quietly live out their days at home waiting for the auction to ebee))) and even if it is new to and precious metal must first work))) And then to eventually earn the right to rest))) Loop, if I understand correctly, they do the same, and the method of pressing, the only difference is that silver is softer than the standard Brass the case itself ..

Become a little clearer: I understand that Armor thicker walls of the housing and fixing eyelets exactly the same? So theoretically it should fall apart into its constituent parts more quickly due to more heavy cover?

it's not that hard to get you to fall apart :)

it was just a marketing move, on the performance of this thickness is not affected, the difference is no particular ...

Understand the operational differences between the Armor and the usual model almost none. Here is a comparison of "side by side": http://zippocollector.ru/archi ..... Armor-Case

The difference in the thickness of the walls - essentially microscopic.

Vladimir, thank you for the answer, and the second thanks for your wonderful site! If he had appeared about 15 years ago, things would have turned out differently))) Although if I had not have been the same Silver Plate, which I bought solely because of the flat bottom, and then later armed with a dictionary to work out why it dimmer "chrome"))))

Yes, with blotches they are heavier and have a feeling that the click is more muffled :) at least, after I poyuzat Zippo comrade she had with blotches, I got the impression :) although it may be only a first impression , I went with a lighter somewhere for a week, then gave it back ...

I once had a black Zippo Jim Beam with three barrels ... it to me too mild a chur ... I looked, however, then about this site did not know, did not know as well as to determine the authenticity and at one point it seemed that it is a fake ... in the end, Zippo was real, but I still sold it, tastes changed and she ceased to please me ... yet never forget how much I was looking for it! was it like in every other online store, and when he began to call -it is nowhere ... just one store found it, and for a high price, now, of course, I think it was not worth it to take ... the sale will still lose money ... decent is, alas, the fate of today's conventional models resale ...
