Filling Mechanism: Rollerball

Omas Paragon pens are in peak demand, and we think you are going to love this scarlet red rollerball pen. Hardly a trace of wear blemishes the stunning celluloid of this classic Italian pen maker. Ours comes with a working refill, and we are happy to say that it takes Schmidt P8126 refills. So you needn't worry that the pen will never take refills now that Omas is out of business. The layers and depths of its celluloid will captivate you for hours as you write. 14cm capped.

Fountain pens aren't for everybody, but class and style are. Montblanc LeGrand rollerball pens have the advantage of looking just as rich and powerful as their fountain pen siblings. Their greatest feature for some is having a water-based ink cartridge combined with a ballpoint pen's convenient delivery system. Our pen comes loaded with a working blue refill, but we have no idea how much ink remains. This pen was well loved. It was a dutiful worker that earned its wear honestly. No cracks, however, th eiinitial "E.R.R." are engraved on the clip. Click the headline for close-ups. 14.4cm capped.

How does one tell the difference between an Omas Milord and Paragon? We have absolutely no idea. Omas changed the sizes of their pens from year to year. We heard what sounded like a good rule of thumb, which is that Paragons are always 14cm or larger. We aren't certain if that is true, but we're running with it. What is undeniable is that this Bronze Arco rollerball pen is stunningly beautiful and 14cm long. The pen has some light wear from use, but no cracks or deep scratches. Its imprint reads "Omas Extra Italy". Rotate the bronze arco celluloid under a light to watch it shimmer and dance. Unfortunately, we haven't a refill for this pen. 14cm capped.

Amber Shimmer is one of the best color schemes on the Waterman Carene line of pens. Our rollerball version was gently used, showing only a few marks of light wear. It comes with a new refill that isn't photoed. These always feel smoother and more solid than rival Montblancs, due to their brass construction. Another nice feature is its spring-loaded clip. 14.4cm capped.

The ultimate pen in the Sheaffer Legacy line of pens was the King's Gold model. Our rollerball model comes with a new in the box refill, and the ruggedly attractive pen is in like-new condition. Based on the classic Sheaffer PFM, this is a nice, thick, bold pen. It is easy to grip and helps prevent cramping of the hand while writing. 13.8cm capped.

Silver trim on a beautiful ivory celluloid makes for a head-turning combination. There are so many subtle layers to the cap and barrel, you'll have fun getting lost in them. The pen has a nice girth and weight, which helps it roll along quite smoothly. We aren't sure what the model name for this Krone rollerball pen is. But a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. Unscrew the blind cap in the tail to reveal the standard rollerball cartridge. We include a new one with the pen. 14cm capped.
