I'm not a collector, not a fan, but decided on the advice of the Chief flooder this site upload pictures of these two lighters)) left Silver Plate Veneciano (sorry if wrong spelling in) Item 1996 edition went through fire and water, silver with her almost peeled that is visible even in fotosemka, the cabinet is heavily dented (fall from 2nd floor) but the hinges have not fallen off, and still pleases machine work! Right about the same age as her, Jim Beam in 1997 with the birth wiped to shine plate, serial and lighters are young enough, because at the exclusive collectible either miraculously preserved rarity can not apply, but they are expensive to me))) now saving up for a silver replica, but it probably not soon ...

No, of course not left, carefully read and noted again until the coins to purchase only postponed because immediately flee the link and placing with no hands, but many thanks for the answer))) 11-12 tyrov really expensive, even though he is such that if Zagora, then overpay 2-3 thousand (two brand new Zippo usual) does not matter, just to quickly grab a stranglehold in the title))) And here's a question: I want to buy for daily use, silver (rumored to be softer ) whether to take a replica or should pay attention to the body in the performance of normal Armor?

It's not really about scratches and fingerprints, to this I was just ready)) I did not mean there will pop riveting inetensivnoy loops in operation? certainly fall from the balcony, as happened with the silver machine will be excluded, however, falling from a height of human growth curves of the hand will be exactly, maybe working as a driver, the quiet life in the home or office warm lighter do not shine)))

I believe that on the shelf can only get lighter proving that deserves to Example 2 of the sample from the beginning of this topic may well retire and peacefully live out their lives at home waiting for the auction ebee))) and let even a novice and precious metal must first work))) And then to eventually earn the right to stay))) Loop, if I understand correctly they are generally the same as the method of pressing, the only difference is that silver is softer than the standard brass alloy the body itself ..

Sterling silver is unlikely to survive such a mockery)) Sorry for the quality, but I have no camera, filmed on a smart phone ...

Become a little clearer: I understand that Armor thicker wall of the housing and mounting tabs is exactly the same? That is, theoretically, it should fall apart into its constituent parts even faster due to the heavier cover?

it is not so hard to start to fall apart faster :)

it was just purely a marketing ploy on the performance of this thickness is not affected, there is no special difference ...

Understand the operational differences between Armor and almost no normal model. That compares them "side by side": http://zippocollector.ru/archi ..... Armor Case-

The difference in wall thickness - essentially microscopic.

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

yes, they become heavier blotch and a feeling that becomes more muffled click :) at least after I poyuzat Zippo friend, she had a blotch, I got the impression :) although maybe it was just a first impression , walked around with a lighter week, then put it back ...

There probably really a matter of habit, when I bought a simple dyeing Chorny color brass (as a donor for veterans), then marveled at its ease, it seemed that it is made of foil)))

I really then about this site did not know, did not know as well as the need to determine the authenticity and at one point it seemed to me that it is a fake ... eventually, Zippo was real, but I still sold it, tastes changed and she ceased to please me ... nevertheless never forget how much I was looking for her, she is like every second was an online store, and when he began to call -it is nowhere ... only one store found her, and for a hefty price, now, of course, it seems to me that it was not worth taking ... when selling well still lost money ... is, alas, the fate of modern conventional models resale ...
