Product Description
Type Modern fountain pen with a very flexible nib, converter included.
Product Name Custom 742.
Manufacturer and Year Pilot (Namiki), Japan -- only a few years old. Date code of B494 on the nib says it was made in 1994.
Length 5-3/4".
Filling System This pen takes Pilot cartridges or converters. A Pilot push-button converter is installed.
Color Burgundy with gold plated trim.
Nib Medium 18k gold nib. Usually these 742s have 14k nibs, but this is 18k so we think it was probably a replacement nib (which is also suggested by the fact that the nib is medium and the sticker and tag say fine.)
Condition Mint condition, not a scratch on it. It seems to have been dipped but not inked. The original tag is still on the clip as well as the sticker on the barrel. In Pilot box with booklet and ink cartridges.
