IM CoronaOld Boy Chromium Lighter

I've had this over a year now, and it still works great. I've never before had any butane lighter last this long without significant issues.

This is my first IM Corona old boy. I have another IM Corona I have had over 6 years, both every well made. The old boy feels good in your hand, strikes every time. I really like this lighter. Great fit and finish. As always Amazon with GREAT shipping right on time. Thank you

I got to say when I ordered this, I had wondered if I had just blown a bunch of money for no good reason...that thought ended the moment I used it for the first time. Though I will say I still think it is a bit pricey...I do not regret buying it. The craftsmanship is fantastic, with high attention to detail. Everything works as intended and does so very well. Loading the flint is a breeze, filling it up is easy, it lights the first strike every time indoors, and adjusting the flame can be done with a short thumbnail. All of this is extremely important in the use of the lighter, but I am also big on the feel of an item. I want it to feel good in the hand, I want it to feel solid, substantial, like it's going to last for a long time, and I am happy to say this lighter checks all the boxes. Plus the crank back arm style is definitely unique in a world full of Bics and Zippos.

I haven't started using it yet. But I will leave it better review on it after I use it for a while. This remind me of the old lighter's how they lasted a long time. That's how this feels. lites amazing.

Always wanted a Dunhill lighter. Found this and debated buying it as it appeared to be a knockoff. Read the reviews and took a chance. Absolutely gorgeous and extremely well-built. I wouldn’t settle for a Dunhill now with what they cost. This is a much better lighter.

this lighter is off the charts when looking at the quality. Also the smoothest operation of cover cap and roller. totally shocked when I first saw it. also just feels awesome in your hands. love it for sure

This is a nice lighter. It heavy, shiny and generally feels like a nice bit of bling. The action is fun (vaguely steampunk).I only smoke outdoors and therefore have to contend with wind on occasion. Sadly, there is utterly no wind shielding around the gas nipple and it blows out quite easily even when you crank the flame up. A Bic disposable was my fallback (much better in the wind).It also quit working after a few weeks. It behaved as tho the valve were sticking (flipping open and closed several times sometimes got it working again) until it eventually would produce no flame at all. The seller sent me a form letter suggesting that I was not using gas of sufficient purity; but I had been using the recommended Colibri Premium Butane all along.$130 for a lighter ought to produce something pretty flawless. There's a $18 copy of the thing here on Amazon.

The best lighter there is. Classic and will continue to work for years and years. I used mine for pipe smoking which means 20-50 lights per day for 5 years before I lost it. I promptly purchased another. Spend extra to get the cleanest fuel you can (not Ronson or zippo brand). And ONLY use Corona’s flints. Zippo flints will fit, but they are too hard and will eventually smoothen the cuts in the flint strike wheel. There are companies that will actually service these so you could conceivably pass this down to your kids/grandkids in perfectly usable condition.
