Filling System Takes a few different refills. The 849 is meant to be used with Caran d'Ache Goliath ballpoint refills and a working black one is installed. As it is configured though, Parker refills also work. It takes a little adjustment but it can be used successfully with many possibilities. The tip extends and retracts via a clicker method.
Color Hexagonal aluminum with matte gold coating. It is called an elextrostatic powder coating.
Condition Excellent + condition, in gold box, and with no cracks, chips, dents or dings. This is a matte all-gold pen that is faceted and that looks sleek and modern. The barrel looks great with just a tiny scratch on the cone and a bit of wear around the ballpoint opening. The clip sides have light scratches. The clip itself is excellent. The push button has scratches from usage. The imprints are clear.
