A beautiful condition translucent blue and black Pilot Custom Heritage 92 fountain pen. The Custom Heritage 92 is a current production pen, but interestingly, the translucent blue and black seems to be unavailable in the translucent blue and black in the UK at present. It is in excellent, undamaged, condition. It has been used, as there are slight traces of ink the can be seen through the transparent gripping section, but it is completely undamaged and it still has the "M" sticker on the barrel denoting the nib width. The pen has a translucent black flat top with a rhodium plated pocket clip. There is a wide rhodium plated girdle around the cap lip that bears the pen's imprint "CUSTOM HERITAGE 29 / PILOT JAPAN", with a very fine rhodium band above. This is a piston filled pen and you twist the translucent black barrel end blind cap to operate the filling mechanism.
An almost new pen in a difficult-to-find colour. I have just dipped the pen to get the writing sample below. The nib is lovely and smooth and writes with a good and consistent line.
