S.T. Dupont Haute Creation 75th Anniversary Complication Lighter

The result of four years of research and development, the new “Complication lighter” is inspired by the delicate machinery of bespoke timepieces and Haute-Horlogerie.
The masterpiece is made entirely in Titanium, Carbon Fiber and Aluminum. The mechanism is protected with a safe code. A function indicator shows when the safe in lock or unlock and a magnifying glass makes it easier to see the code.
The skeletal body of the lighter lets you see the interlinking system (200 parts), while the exquisitely designed palladium finish body is adorned with 9 rubies to add to the decadence.
A real demonstration of the craftsmanship of the Faverges artisans, the “Complication” lighter with a double flame and torch flame is made exclusively to order, limited to eight numbered pieces.
