I'm not sure which model it is. It's brushed aluminum and chrome. It has quite a good heft to it. When I flipped open the top lid, I was surprised to see a mirror inside of the lid. This was an unexpected nice touch. The three burners looks rather large, and the jets make an impressive sound once lit! There's also a cigar punch cutter on the bottom that flips out too. I'm sure this thing will drink the fuel, but since I only smoke 1-2 sticks per day, this shouldn't be an issue. Overall a very pleasant surprise and a nice lighter!! Thanks dennq !!!!

My digital camera died, so instead of pics I've made a very brief video. Enjoy!

I have the same lighter. Never noticed the mirror. The button got mushy and it failed to spark after the second time I used it. Thought I was going to have to send it back. After fooling with it, it started working and has been trouble free for the last 3 months. Makes quick work of toasting a cigar.
