AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rötring 600 ballpoint pen. N.O.S
This model is a classic of technical and industrial design, widely recognized for its durability, precision and minimalist Bauhaus-style aesthetics.
Hexagonal Body: The main body of the pen has a hexagonal six-sided shape, entirely made of metal with a satin matte finish in a thermally gray/silver tone. This geometry not only gives it a modern look, but also effectively prevents the pen from rolling and falling when placed on inclined drawing boards or tables.
Knurled Grip Zone: The lower section (where the fingers rest while writing) features a precisely cut knurled (anti-slip) pattern in the metal. It offers a rough texture that guarantees a firm grip and excellent control, reducing fatigue during long writing sessions.
Click Mechanism: It features a metallic top button that activates and retracts the tip smoothly and precisely with a press.
Clipping Clip: It has a curved and sturdy metallic clip, engraved with the rOtring brand, ideal for securely attaching it to a shirt pocket, notebooks, or cases.
Brand and Color Details
Logo and Inscription: On one of the flat faces of the body stands the vertical imprint in the brand’s characteristic bright red color that reads: rOtring 600.
Distinctive Red Ring: At the top, just below the push button, it incorporates the iconic glossy red plastic ring, which is the universal identity seal of all premium rOtring products.
Lead Type Indicator: Just above the red ring, the upper knurled piece features a small window that shows a blue background. In this type of technical instrument, this area typically functions as an adjustable indicator to quickly tell at a glance the ink type, color, or thickness of the inserted refill.
Dimensions: 13.8 cm long, 7.9 mm wide, weight 26 grams.
