800 Ballpoint Pen

Ok, so firstly I love the quality of Rotring and all, but if you are a bit pedantic - you will hate the fact that refill is not perfectly still in the barrel of the pen - it MOVES slightly :) Yes - this is a fact barrel is slightly too big and so as you write you will hear some clicks and squeals and squeaks caused by movement of the refill inside. Its easy to sort out if you don't mind - ( i don't ) - by giving a refill a single wrap in sellotape or simple writing paper stripe. It absolutely sorts out the problem and fixes the pen rendering it dead silent, not affecting retracting mechanism. Overall pen is amazing quality and it feels like it will last centuries :) Probably also most comfortable pen on the market - "whatever weather" Its great to write on your desk , or on the bench in the park in the rain - will not slip off your hands. Hand feels relaxed after hours of writing ( i do write crazy A LOT ) and retracting mechanism is absolute genius. So if you can overlook the initial "fix" you will never buy any other pen I guarantee you that lol

100% original, made in Japan. Just as it should be. Weight, material, texture, dimensions, packaging, everything is correct. I previously came across a silver good fake, but I sent it back, exchanging it for this model. This is the second one. And it is just as it should be, even cheaper than the silver one. Nothing will turn on in your pocket, the end is rounded so it won't make a hole, it is narrow and metal so it is perfect for a pocket notebook. I recommend it. It's a class of its own, nothing to add or subtract. I only changed the refill to 0.5 gel Parker because I like it. Great pen.

Good, but too expensive.

Nice pen but a bit heavy for office work

This pen is very comfortable to use and the retractable tip mechanism is very smooth. I purchased this pen after using two Rotring 800+ mechanical pencils for years and after seeing there was also a pen with the same design I had to have it. The only downside to the pen was the ink cartridge. After about two days of use, it stopped working. This may be due to a faulty refill or maybe the pen had been sitting in a depot for an extended period of time. This wouldn't stop me purchasing this pen again though.

I love the design and build of the 800 series. I mainly use this pen for taking notes and signing documents, so it doesn't get tonnes of heavy use. I think that if you have big (or maybe even normal mens hands...) then you would find this pen to be quite uncomfortable if you're writing pages upon pages. As the grip is quite narrow and the hexagonal shape can dig into your hand (for me its my thumb). YMMV. However, if you're not going to be using it for that then you will likely love this pen. The twist mechanism is really nice. I haven't had any issues with it yet and find it smooth and easy to operate. And with a bit of practice can do it with one hand no problem. Would recommend 10/10 (If you can get is discounted, as its quite expensive at rrp)

Gorgeous pen. I was concered by reviews saying it rattled. I am using an OHTO needlepoint and having no issues. The narrow barrel tip works well with a needlepoint because the thicker barrel doesn't obscure the tip. I usually do not like heavy knurling on metal pens but Rotring have this spot on - grippy but not abrasive.

One if not best pens I had.

Picking it up from the packaging, you can instantly feel the difference compared to even "premium EDC pens". The heft is great, ink writes well, and overall feels really satisfying to hold. Very pleased so far. Time will tell if Rotring's durability is really as good as people claim it to be.

Fair price for high end product.

Muito satisfeito com o produto e rapidez na entrega

二代目 黒も併用しているので会わせると三代目です 他のレビュアーも記載通り、立ち仕事、サービス業では無敵ではないだろうか。ゲストに出しても恥ずかしくない高級感あり、頑丈で、書きやすく、パーカー互換あり。 高額な他のペンを買っては固い床に落とし、壊してしまってはショックを受けていたが、このペンが壊れたのは洗濯機で計二回洗って中のインクが逆流し、中のファンクションが完全に固まってしまった時のみ。水に落とした位ではビクともしません（テストは自己責任でお願い致します）。 適度な重さがあるので取り回しも抜群ですし、胸ポケットでも主張が強すぎることもありません。 無垢なシルバー地ではなく、オレンジのアクセントがあるのもオシャレ。 互換インクは勿論各自の好みが有るだろうが、OHTOのPS-107NPが一番不自然でない形でフィットするのでオススメ。 ご存知、OHTOはその廉価性からパーカー互換ペンに良く使われるけれど、どうしても不自然に見える。しかし、あたかも初期設定のように自然に使えます。 また、サービス業や立ち仕事は複写式の紙への記入も多く、走り書きしてもしっかり複写される点も大変ありがたい。 とはいえ、ロットリング純正インクも非常に書心地よく、ペンそのものの重さにマッチしている。他の互換インクよりコスパ良いのもポイント。特に青の発色が目立ちすぎずシックで素晴らしいので是非お試しを。

Eu já possuía a lapiseira Rotring 800 0.5 mm e resolvi adquirir a caneta correspondente, e ela também é de excelente qualidade.
