Overview

The Pilot Capless fountain pen in silver brings polished lacquer and rhodium-plated accents together in a design operated with a simple push button.

The series, introduced in 1963, places the retractable mechanism inside the barrel so that a separate cap is unnecessary. This version has a rhodium-plated 18k gold nib.

One push extends the nib for writing; another retracts it behind an internal shutter. The fountain pen accepts Pilot ink cartridges or a compatible converter for bottled ink and comes in a black gift box with a Pilot CON-40 converter and a Pilot ink cartridge.

Made in Japan, it measures 154 mm long. The barrel is 13 mm wide, and the pen weighs 43 g.

It accepts Pilot IC-50 ink cartridges or a Pilot CON-40 converter for bottled fountain pen ink.

What is included with this fountain pen?

A Pilot CON-40 converter and a Pilot ink cartridge are supplied in a black gift box.

How should I care for the lacquered exterior?

Clean the lacquered exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

formidable

Suite à une rupture de stock, je me suis rabattu avec l'aide d'une personne du site vers le capless blanc qui est superbe, ainsi que l'écrin et la pompe livrée avec et la possibilité de mettre une cartouche à la place, vraiment splendide et un très bon stylo. J'ai eu un suivi très sérieux de la part du site, vraiment bravo! Je recommande
