This example remains uninked and in Mint condition, complete with its original lacquered wooden Duofold presentation box, outer packaging, Parker literature, Certificate of Authenticity, and the distinctive Pinstripe trade cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduced in 2004, the Pinstripe was a bold and fashion-forward Special Edition from Parker, offered in two finishes—Navy and Chocolate. The Navy version is arguably the more striking: a sophisticated interplay of deep blue, opal white, and grey vertical striping set against brilliant palladium-plated trim. The design evokes tailored suiting—sharp, refined, unmistakably confident. Even the champagne-gold accented presentation box with drawer was styled to echo the couture inspiration behind the series. Production numbers were never publicly disclosed, adding a touch of mystery to an already compelling release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the Centennial size—the largest and most substantial Duofold configuration—measuring approximately 5 3\/8 inches capped, 6 7\/8 inches posted, and weighs 1.01 ounces. The lower end of the barrel is crisply stamped, “PARKER MADE IN U.K. I.III,” denoting first quarter 2004 production. Three polished cap bands frame the cap beautifully, crowned by the iconic Duofold emblem inset at the top of the cap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe condition is exceptional. There are no nicks, chips, cracks, scratches, or repairs. The palladium trim remains bright and free of wear. The threads are clean and precise, allowing the cap to secure confidently to the barrel. There are no monograms or personal engravings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pen is fitted with a large 18K solid gold Duofold “Banner” nib, platinum-plated and engraved with the Parker arrow and Duofold name. Marked “M” on the feed for Medium, the iridium tipping measures approximately .86mm with digital calipers. The nib has never been inked and remains in pristine, untouched condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Duofold utilizes a Parker-branded converter (included) and will also accept Parker ink cartridges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory presentation packaging is in excellent condition, completing what is truly a collector-grade offering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Navy Pinstripe Centennial sold quickly upon release and remains one of the more distinctive modern Duofold variations. Parker has not revisited this tailored pinstripe aesthetic since, making this Special Edition a standout among contemporary issues. Crisp, architectural, and undeniably elegant—this is a Duofold that commands attention in any serious Parker collection\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Digger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49056356172084,"sku":null,"price":884.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1862\/4123\/files\/2004ParkerCentennialNavyBluePinstripeFountainPen1.jpg?v=1772652408","url":"https:\/\/antiquedigger.com\/en-ca\/products\/2004-parker-duofold-centennial-navy-blue-pinstripe-special-edition-fountain-pen-never-inked","provider":"Antique Digger","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
