A unique alternative to the everyday fountain pen, the new Custom 823 by Pilot is in a league of its own. A simple, yet elegant design, the Custom 823 is great for everyday writing. The smoky transparent amber cap and barrel, visible ink supply and unique writing system make refilling effortless. This Custom 823 features a fine 14 karat gold nib and a vacuum filling system. Each pen is merchandised in a silver sateen lined Pilot gift box with a bottle of blue fountain pen ink.
