Authentic Zippo windproof lighter with a maritime theme, dedicated to the Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS Albuquerque (SSN-706). This model was manufactured in 1983, as accurately indicated by the bottom stamp with four diagonal lines to the left and three to the right of the logo (\\\\ Zippo ///). The case has a brushed chrome finish (Brushed Chrome). The front features a full-color graphic print of the submarine's emblem with the motto 'SILENTUM EXCUBITOR', while the back features a black print of the 'Submarine Warfare' insignia (dolphins) and the ship's name. The internal mechanism uses the standard windproof flint-and-fuel design.

Condition: The lighter shows cosmetic signs of use around the case in the form of superficial scratches and light wear spots on the brushed finish, which is typical given its age. The internal insert has typical soot deposits around the chimney and flint wheel resulting from previous use. The hinge closes properly, and the ignition mechanism is in good working order.

Transparency Grading

We are strict in our assessment so that you will only be pleasantly surprised upon receipt:

  • Grade A: In excellent condition. May have minimal signs of storage, but is in a very neat, unused condition.
  • Grade B: A fair item. May contain normal scratches or other signs of previous use, but is 100% technically sound.
  • Grade C: Clearly heavily used. Expect visible scratches, dents, or dull spots. 

Cleaned & Lubricated

No nasty surprises or stuck tools. Every item is individually inspected and hand-cleaned by us. We remove old grease and grime and treat the pivot point with premium Ballistol oil. You receive a knife that is clean, operates smoothly, and is immediately ready for a second life.

Warranty & Returns

We stand behind our products. That is why you receive a standard 12-month warranty on the proper functioning of the mechanism. Should the knife not meet your expectations, you have 14 days to reconsider and return it.

The warranty applies to technical defects that were not caused by your own actions.
