Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Regular, Sleek Demonstrator. This is the rounded ends version.
Manufacturer and Year Conid, Belgium -- 2013. This was a limited edition designed by Fountainbel, and is number 4 of 60.
Length 5-3/4". It feels very much like an oversize pen.
Filling System "Bulk Filler" piston system. The system works by turning the blind cap counter-clockwise, pulling the rod back and then locking it by turning it when it reaches the top of the barrel. After the rod is locked into place, it acts just like a plunger system where you push and pull the seal to drawn in ink. After you've sufficiently drawn in ink, while the rod is pulled out, you turn the blind cap clockwise until it disengages. At that point you can push the rod back into the barrel with only a few drops of ink coming out in the process. Much like the Visconti power filler system there is a dual reservoir set up and the blue viewing window shows what ink is readily available without turning the piston knob to refill it.
This is a complicated filling system which baffles many people. If you have not used one of these before, you should take a look at the YouTube video. We won't be able to give a refund if the pen has been used incorrectly.
Color This is one of the demonstrator versions with a clear acrylic barrel for the storage reservoir. The trim is titanium.
Nib FINE Titanium nib. The nib is very smooth and springy.
Condition Near mint condition. The pen really looks new with no trim wear and low handwear. No cracks, chips, scratches, or dents. We've inspected this pen and as far as we can tell, it was never inked. It ships in its original box with the tools required to dissemble the pen.
Please note that if the barrel gets stained from ink, this pen cannot be returned for a refund. Ordinarily our return policy is quite liberal, but with all the crazy inks on the market these days and the damage we have seen done to demonstrators by those inks, we need to modify the policy somewhat for this pen.
