Crafted in a uniquely cool smoke black transparent finish, the Sailor 1911 REALO’S body strikes the perfect balance between classic sophistication and practical design. The transparent black resin allows writers to keep an eye on their remaining ink levels at a glance without having to look inside at a converter or cartridge. Inside, the built-in piston mechanism holds an impressive 1.5ml of ink — no more running out of ink mid-sentence! It comes equipped with Sailor's 18k solid gold nib. Whether you’re a veteran pen collector or just treating yourself to an upgrade, the writing experience on this 18K gold pen is not to miss. Note: Here is the extra fun part for all Sailor enthusiasts: the REALO body brings incredible mix-and-match versatility! Sailor designed this piston barrel to be compatible with existing models that share the same grip section thread specifications and dimensions. That means you can swap you favorite existing Sailor nib sections onto this new high-capacity piston body.
