Rare early Thorens Single Claw Automatic Petrol Lighter, Missing Striker wheel

Description

If you do decide to purchase from me, please note that I stand behind my sale, and it is NOT necessary to contact ebay, before contacting me. If you have ANY questions, or are unhappy with the item, for any reason, what so ever. Just either write or call me, and I will do whatever is necessary to make you a happy customer. Also, please pay attention to measurements, because pictures sometimes look very large in the listing, but the item, might be smaller in person.
I have been a licensed estate buyer for the last 35 years, having multiple locations, and jewelry stores, and I recently closed shop and retired from the retail end of the business.  I have a ton of leftover items, not limited to Jewelry, watches or parts, so I am going to sell them all on ebay.  I have a large collection of Sterling Silver serving pieces as well as object d'art, in Silver.
It is getting harder and harder to still find vintage and antique, beautiful silver items, especially with silver prices being what they are.  Too many beautiful things getting torched and melted.  Sad!
I was the type of estate buyer who bought anything put in front of me, if I thought the price was fair, so I have a lot of different things.
This is a super cool old antique lighter, from Thorens, znew York, but made in Switzerland.  It is the single claw automatic style lighter, missing the striker wheel.  It opens and closes perfectly!  It is mono'd, but otherwise, is extremely nice original condition, without any dents, dings, or repair marks.
I will always combine shipping on purchases of multiple items.
Please note that any item that is altered in any way after purchase, whether buy the buyer or by the seller, it can not be returned under any circumstances. This means that I you shorten a bracelet, or resize a ring, I Will not take it back. Please be sure you want what you have bought, before you change it in any way.
Thank you,
