Product Description
Type Modern ballpoint pen.
Product Name From the Cougar de Cartier Trinity Style.
Manufacturer and Year Cartier, France -- circa 1992. The clip has a 1992 imprint on its side.
Length 5-3/16"
Filling System The pen takes a Cartier ballpoint refill and a fine blue one is included (but we're not sure how long it will last). It's unusual - similar to a "D1" refill but much longer (95mm or 3.75" long) with a flared end. IT IS NOT THE SAME AS THE CURRENT PARKER-COMPATIBLE CARTIER REFILLS. These are hard to find but not impossible, we see someone in Japan selling them on eBay, but they are expensive.
Color Gunmetal colored pen. It has a ribbed or godron cap and barrel with plated titanium and has smooth chrome plated end pieces. The pen has a black cabochon jewel in the end of the pen. Just beneath the section, the pen has the Cartier trinity band with white, rose, and yellow plated gold.
Condition Excellent condition with some light handwear. No dents, dings, cracks, or chips. There is some patina on the titanium portions, but no brassing or plating wear. It works well. The pen ships in a red and gold box with paperwork, and there is also an outer white cardboard protective sleeve.
