Full Version: What kind of snorkel did I pick up?

I just bought a new snorkel, and I'm having trouble IDing it. I looked over Richard's site, but I can't seem to place my pen into any of these categories neatly.

The band on the cap is 3/8" long and has a white dot, it appears to have a gold or golden colored snorkel, and it has a two-tone 14k Triumph nib all in a pastel grey body. The cap band has lines running around it (I would call that horizontal. Is that correct?)

I must apologize, I am a terrible photographer. I took a dozen photographs, and these were the best two.

Valiant in pastel gray.

Thank you so much. May I ask how you could tell that it is a Valiant and not a Signature? I've never seen a Signature, but going by Richard's site I couldn't tell what the difference between them was, other than that most (all?) Signatures would have a signature on the cap band.

The ring on the cap on the signature should have a 14k emblem on it.
Also as far as I know the signaturewas never made in this colour.
