S.T. Dupont "replicas"

Does it fill with Dupont Butane (or adapter) like your real one? If so, what color Butane? If I'm buying a replica, I'd actually prefer it fill with standard Butane, but I don't own a real ST to begin with. Otherwise it looks great!

That is a great question, I guess I will find out when it arrives.

Mine did not come color coded for a bottle, but we figured out it would accept a gold refill can.

However, I fill mine perfectly fine using a small brass adapter a friend has. It's just a tapered piece that sits against the seal and allows you to use a standard butane can. I looked around online, you can fine various ones that are actually made for real Dupont lighters.

Probably another thing I'll buy at some point.
