Product Description
Type Capless fountain pen -- the nib retracts like a ballpoint.
Product Name Vanishing Point.
Manufacturer and Year Pilot, Japan -- 2013
Length 5-9/16"
Filling System Pilot cartridge or converter. A good CON-50 converter is installed. Sometimes the ink creates a vacuum and the piston converters are extra difficult to remove. The adapter (cover) for cartridges is not mandatory but is recommended to ensure consistent clicking. A cartridge cover and cartridge are included in the box.
Color Shiny burnt orange lacquer called, "Metallic Desert Orange." It has matte black trim. Original clip tag.
Nib FINE 18k nib is smooth and somewhat firm with lovely tipping material. Marked F. The nib has black masking and is correct for how this pen sold. As a note, the vanishing point nib units have subtly changed over time and not all are interchangeable.
Condition Mint condition (never inked), in box, with paperwork, ink cartridge, and cartridge cover. This is a large, modern pen in a very cool color combination. It has the original clip tag. The pen is in perfect condition with no cracks, chips, dents, dings, or scratches. The imprints are clear.
