Description from the seller

Title:
Pilot - Vintage Elite Pocket Fountain Pen - Rare 18K Solid Gold "SCRIPT" Nib - Black & Gold - 1970s

Description:
An iconic vintage Japanese pocket fountain pen from PILOT: the classic Elite S, produced during the 1970s.

While standard Elite models typically feature 14K nibs, this exceptional piece is fitted with an upgraded, rare 18K solid gold "SCRIPT" nib. Specially engineered for effortless cursive handwriting and swift note-taking, the SCRIPT nib offers wonderful springiness and fluid ink flow that pen connoisseurs highly revere. Pioneering the famous "long cap / short barrel" pocket design, this pen measures a compact 118 mm capped for effortless portability, yet extends into an impeccably balanced full-length pen when posted. Finished in timeless glossy black with radiant gold-plated accents, it represents the pinnacle of 1970s Japanese stationery engineering.
