The Pilot Metropolitan Retro Pop Fountain Pen utilizes a Japanese stainless steel nib mounted on a weighted brass frame. It uses proprietary cartridges or converters for ink delivery. This version updates the previous Animal and Classic series with 1960s-inspired patterns and a broader color palette.
Key Features
- Brass Body Construction: 26g metallic frame with matte finish. Survives drops on hard floors better than plastic alternatives.
- Japanese Stainless Steel Nib: Precision-cut F, M, or 1.0mm stub options. Writes narrower than European equivalents to suit small handwriting styles.
- Retro Pop Center Band: Mid-century geometric patterns on the grip section. Provides a tactile reference point for consistent finger placement.
- Snap-on Cap: Airtight friction-fit closure system. Prevents ink evaporation during short breaks between writing sessions.
- Dual Filling System: Support for Pilot cartridges and squeeze converters. Switch between bottled ink or pre-filled cartridges depending on location.
