Rotring 1904291 Rapid Pro Ballpoint Technical Drawing Pen, Medium Point, Silver Chrome

If you're considering buying this pen, you're likely here for the high quality and craftsmanship. I can confidently say that this pen delivers. The black finish looks and feels exquisite, and the soft, fine knurling maintains the refined feel of the pen. The clicking mechanism is also soft, with lots of travel, unlike many other firm mechanisms on other pens. While many people aren't fans of the button, I don't mind it much. The ink cartridges aren't some proprietary design meant to extract as much money as possible from you; the standard cartridge allows you to refill it with just about anything you want.The red ring is made of shiny plastic, and unscrewing the grip reveals that the threads are that same red plastic. I'm slightly disappointed that the threads are not entirely metal, as I expect the plastic threads stripping or snapping could be the only potential reason the pen breaks. Knowing this, I would be very careful when tightening the grip. Nevertheless, the pen comes in at a hefty 25.3 grams (or 0.89 oz) and feels extremely solid. If taken care of, I'd like to think it could last a lifetime.Due to the weight of the pen, writing for long periods can be a little uncomfortable. For regular use, the weight feels nice, but I've used it continuously for as long as three hours during an exam, and my hand got quite tired. However, I rarely use it continuously for that long, so it's not an issue I encounter often.I purchased the rOtring mechanical pencil first and just stored it in my pocket. After a few days of use, it began to show signs of wear, with the black finish coming off to reveal the metal underneath. To keep it in good condition, I'd recommend using a case that prevents it from bumping around. Personally, I'm using the Girologio Triple case with inserts I made from gun case PU foam, and it has been working perfectly for over a year and a half with no further damage.Overall, I am very pleased with the quality of the rOtring Rapid Pro ballpoint pen. It is a well-made, elegant, and durable pen. Those with an appreciation for quality writing instruments, whom I've allowed to use it, all provided very positive feedback.

C'est le cousin du rotring 600. Il lui ressemble beaucoup mais la différence c'est que rapid pro a le filetage en plastique (la bague rouge) alors que le 600 a le filetage en métal.Accepte les recharge parker G2 donc un grand choix de recharge (Jetstream sxr-600). Le poid donne une impression de robustesse mais n'est pas trop lourd non plus. Selon le prix, préférez le rotring 600 mais s'il est moins cher le rapid pro est un excellent stylo.

Beh che dire già la marca è sinonimo di qualità robusta ergonomica è molto scorrevole. Il prezzo è adeguato

Ergonómico, elegante y muy cómodo. Muy buen producto

pen arrived in great condition with blue ink cartridge. I love the feel and look of this pen. Writes smooth with a firm weight.
