I've been wanting this pipe for a while, and after seeing a very nice Barbados a member uploaded recently, I just couldn't help myself and got this Classic 648 C.
How do you like it?
Cheers,
J

That's a nice looking pipe. I looked to see if I could find out more about the model and couldn't find another one with that stem. All the others I've seen are flush to the shank.

You are absolutely right Newbroom. I just looked all over the place and could not find one with this stem!
Why is it that I always get the odd pieces?

On the other hand, by looking at the way the stummel edges are finished (rounded vs straight)this pipe was never meant to have a flush mounted stem.

Who knows?
Cheers,
J
EDIT: Just found this one in a page from the Middle East!

Nice pipe. I had my eye on a couple of them on SP the other day but couldn't pull the trigger.
