“IMCO®, the World’s Supreme Lighter since 1918!”

The IMCO Perplex was first introduced in the 1950s. This very rare lighter works a lot like the Imco Triplex in its sparking mechanism, however, it features an amazing mechanism for the fuel tank. The tank will shoot up with a push of a button to light your pipe and can be removed with another button. Reliable and very well made, these lighters will probably outlive you.
