However, even though crucial parts may have been serviced/replaced, an older lighter may still leak gas over time, or miss a spark. These lighters have aged over decades, resulting in some internal wear that may have accumulated and will affect their performance, and there is nothing to be done about it. Just know that you are buying a vintage product, and it can happen that they may not perform as expected of a new lighter.

A Dunhill Rollagas from 1978, finished in a deep lacquer that reads closer to plum than true red, set against gold-plated trim along the edges and base. The flat-fronted barrel shows the lacquer at its plainest and most effective, an unbroken panel of colour running the length of the case with the plating doing all the framing. Fine lines in the lacquer catch differently depending on the angle, giving the surface a quiet shift of tone rather than a single flat colour.
The Rollagas took its name from the rolling ignition wheel set into the side, which strikes the flint and releases the butane in one motion under the thumb. It was one of the first butane lighters to succeed commercially, built with the Geneva firm La Nationale, and the shift away from petrol fuel is why the model still has such a following today: no petrol smell, a flame set with a simple gas control valve, and an action that stays smooth and quiet lighting after lighting. By 1978 the concealed hinge had long replaced the earlier exposed barrel, which is part of what gives these later lacquered examples their clean, unbroken lines.
This one is in good condition, with visible wear from genuine use, the kind a lighter like this picks up after years of being carried rather than kept on a shelf. It comes without its original box or papers. It has been fully serviced in our workshop and is ready to fill and use, equally at home on a desk or back in a jacket pocket where a Rollagas generally earns its keep.
