Pilot Say: The Vanishing Point retractable fountain pen is a product rich in both history and performance. Its brilliant design and ingenious technology make it a pen for the new age. A larger size, durable metal body and attractive appointments make the Vanishing Point unmistakably unique. All are available with an 18 karat gold fine, medium or broad nib. Cartridge / Converter filling system, converter provided. Each Vanishing Point fountain pen is beautifully merchandised in a navy gift box.

We say: Completely agree. A really distinctive pen - their aren't too may retractable Fountain pens around. This one is tried and tested, having first emerged in 1964 to commemorate the Tokyo Olympics, and having developed continually since then. All Pilot Capless fountain pens have an 18k gold nib in Fine, Medium or Broad (the fine is very fine indeed). The nib is of the highest quality, and more flexible than we have come to expect from European or American nibs. A joy to use!
