Pilot Custom 823 Clear Demonstrator
Special Edition Fountain Pen
We rarely treat ourselves to a luscious photograph, but this pen and presentation box demanded no less.
This the same model as the standard Pilot 823 but with a clear barrel and cap. This way you can clearly see not only how much ink is left, but how this amazing filler works.
Based on the same filling principle as Sheaffer's employed in the 1930's, this updated and stronger system uses a vacuum behind the piston to fill this pen. At the bottom of the "down-stroke", the vacuum is released drawing ink up into the barrel. As well, by tightening the "blind cap", the black cap on the end of the barrel the ink is sealed inside. Only by turning this cap can writing commence. This helps prevent leaks.

Please note that this pen and all other "demonstrator" pens are not for clean-freaks. Eventually, some ink will appear in the cap and require rinsing if this sort of thing bothers you.

Available only with14K single tone medium nib. This is a very very smooth and somewhat fine medium nib. Its quality rivals the best in the world today.

The wooden box includes a bottle of ink specially prepared for this edition. The pen, ink and box make a great gift presentation.

This pen is available in very limited number in the US market, and comes with special ink in a gorgeous sateen lined presentation box.

We will soon be sold out and not able to get more.
