Filling Mechanism: Rollerball

We'll stand by the fact a Cross Townsend rollerball with write better than any standard issue Montblanc rollerball. We like the smooth, confident glide with its heft. These pens cost more than $100 retail brand new. You get a huge bargain because the outer shell of the cap is a little separated from the inner cap shell. It seems secure, but we don't know how to tighten the outer shell in place. The pen still works great and we'll include a fresh new Cross RB refill. 15cm capped.

Coral is always a highly sought color for pen collectors, and these Visconti Voyager Convertibles from 1998 are not easy to find. Convertible? Unscrew the golden nose cone on this pen and you can put in a rollerball, felt-tip or Parker-style ballpoint refill! This pen still includes it Parker-ballpoint conversion kit! We installed a new rollerball refill, but we showed off the pen with a dried felt-tip refill for the visual. Cosmetically, this preowned luxury pen has a few issues. The cap is a shade darker than the barrel. No cracks or scratches, but the metal trim has a lot of issues. The cap band looks like the bottom lip of the band is coming up a little and has some spots of corrosion. That goes for the top logo button on the cap, too. We've cleaned them up as best we can, but it still isn't perfect. You can see the corrosion on the metal warranty tube, too. 14cm capped.

We dare you to find a more stunning modern art deco pen than this gorgeous Omas 360 Burkina rollerball pen. We could gaze on this sterling silver and celluloid luxury pen for hours and not get bored.

It comes with a working red P8126 refill—an easy-to-find capless rollerball refill style. It writes great. You should give it a try. The only flaw is in the lining of the box that seems to be deteriorating a bit. Pen measures 15cm capped.

Hooray for Hollywood! Omas pays tribute to 100 years of cinema with its 1995 limited edition Omas Cinema pen. From Audrey Hepburn on the outer box to the inner presentation case being a film canister, this is a blockbuster rollerball. One of only 3,890 pens, its smokey pearl grey celluloid is almost as stunning as the famed Arco celluloid. We include a new P8126 refill with the pen. It is a big Paragon-size pen with only light traces of wear from use. 14cm capped.

Discover a universe of joy when you write with the limited edition Omas Galileo Galilei rollerball pen. Ours comes complete in its original boxes.

A new refill is included with the pen. A very handsome paragon-size pen at 14cm capped.

Looking as bright and warm as the Italian sun, our Aurora Optima Sole is a beautiful rollerball pen.

Vibrant green and gold will knock your socks off in this set of Aurora Optima Primavera writing instruments. Each is only lightly used sporting minimal wear. Up first is the limited edition rollerball pen numbered 2359. It comes with a working blue refill, though we have no idea how much ink remains. Unscrew the black blind cap on the tail to change the refill. Matching it is the pencil numbered 2069. Twist the tail cap to the side to advance .5mm leads. A couple spare leads are hidden in the pen. Works great. Pen measures 12.6cm capped.
