Dear forum members, please tell that in the model and what years?

Looks like a typhoon, but insert is inserted like a Zippo.

Thank you.

As for me, it's crossing of the two models-Ronson Windlite and Ronson Typhoon, I have not seen such a model, lighters, I think that is the creation of Japanese or Chinese, the picture is on your cam that throws back the lid, while the other design Ronson tilting the lid, I think this just looks like a cigarette lighter Ronson

Thank you for your answers!

Editing.

On WintageLigters.ru found a post dedicated to such.

Named in the subject as "Ronson Windlite by Ronson Export Ltd", are manufactured in Japan for the "Ronson"

Cover mounting, the wheel, the design is identical. Difference of one - and on the embodiment with an end cap, screw etc.

Is there even a mention about Ronson Windligte II. This may, in the "leather" - is it?


He took it for everyday use, but when the counterpart is not found in the catalogs, I thought, suddenly a rarity, and put on the shelf. I want to understand. In general, use a regular Zippo. (Associated question to the experts: It seems to be a sign of R on the stamp after the third year moved to the top, but still down here? But I got the impression-Zippo dear?) Or Zippo need to open a separate topic?

It is. Stared, and then instead of R-i any!?

Of the top ... (Four years dragged, and in the tail and mane. Scuffled all ... and no complaints.

What can I say, well done. If so fake is so, then surely the original - the eternal. )

For help on Zippo thank you!
