Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name 600 (3rd version, identified by deeper knurling than the first and 2nd versions, the appearance of the bevel at the top of the cap, and the color of the paint in the logo ). Not the Newton or Levenger version.
Manufacturer and Year Rotring, made in Germany (Though this pen isn't marked as to country of manufacture, it's our understanding that all true 600 pens were made in Germany, and only the pencil production occurred in Japan.)
Length 5-9/16".
Filling System Cartridge/converter filling system. A piston converter is installed in the pen.
Color Matte black with red writing and a red trim band around the top of the cap.
Nib FINE steel nib.
Condition Excellent condition. Some of the coating has been rubbed off of the knurling at the end of the barrel, leaving a gold color peeking through. The ring just underneath this same knurling has some cracks in it. We've included some detailed photos of these area below. This is classic Rotring, an industrial-looking pen with a scientific aura. The cap and barrel are perfect. The chasing on the grip and on the top piece of the cap is fully intact. The red writing and band are perfect. The imprints are clear.
