This is a restored Hermes vintage Media3 (1st generation) typewriter, a popular model. This time, there was no major readjustment, but the shift key operation was adjusted, and the characters were adjusted to be perfectly aligned with the roller. The printing is very clean. Almost all operations have been confirmed. In the US and EU, the market price is around 100,000 yen or more. This is a great deal in Japan. It's a portable type with a rare, slightly larger 1-inch 10-point font size. The body is designed to float in the air with rubber cushions, making it quiet and comfortable for long periods of use. The printing is very clean, please refer to the images. Two brushes are included, but the instruction manual is a copy. Also, the plastic guide on the printing part was damaged, so it has been repaired with UV-curing resin adhesive (Image 8). Restoration includes: ① Disassembly and overall cleaning of moving parts ② Replacement of plus screws and replaced screws with new minus screws ③ Adjustment of the carriage assembly position ④ Repair of the damaged plastic guide on the printing part ⑤ Touch-up of paint chips on moving parts and corners, etc. This is an old product. To prevent parts or body swapping, this item is one-way (no claims or returns, including initial defects). Please note that if you disassemble it carelessly, the aligned printed characters may shift, and the carriage may not move smoothly. Please check the latch when attaching the case. If it is incomplete, it may fall. Regarding the restoration of the typewriter, the base is to return it to its original condition, but if plus screws have been replaced, screws of the same standard are used. Also, as it is a tool that does not use electricity, we have repaired and adjusted it to a level that meets expectations, but extreme accuracy cannot be expected. We have also made comprehensive adjustments to the key touch and carriage operation problems caused by the shift key operation, so please understand.
