Description

The Retro 51 Tornado Stealth Lacquers Emerald Green rollerball pen is a refined expression of minimalist design and modern luxury. Part of the Stealth Lacquers collection, it focuses on clean form, smooth lacquer finishes, and a confident aesthetic that avoids excess detail while emphasizing presence and style.

The barrel features a deep emerald green lacquer inspired by the richness of precious gemstones, paired with glossy black accents for contrast and balance. Its tapered Tornado silhouette subtly shifts in tone under light, creating a dynamic visual effect that enhances its elegant, understated character.

Designed for professionals, executives, and design-focused users, the Retro 51 Emerald Green rollerball pen delivers a smooth writing experience with black ink refills and precise craftsmanship. It is a sophisticated everyday writing instrument that reflects clarity, control, and timeless style.

A beautiful burgundy ballpoint.

After picking up the Purple Ocean version of this Caran d'Ache pen, I ended up ordering this Burgundy version as a gift for someone else. They really like it. The parts that stood out to them the most were how pretty it is, the good hand feel and weight, and that it writes reliably.

Delightful little pocket pen

I bought this as I have the Namisu Pocket Nova in ultem and wanted something thinner but with a #6nib. This pen fit perfectly, now may need to get more nibs for it, and possibly a second one.

Gravitas Dinkey Skittle

The steel of this particular Dinkey gives it a more distinct weight compared to similar titanium models. While it contrasts in that regard, it mirrors their quality, fit and finish. Capping, uncapping and posting all feel smooth and reliable. And the Skittle's finish it everything I had hoped for. It's vibrant, colorful and shiny, without being a finger-print magnet.

This makes my fifth Dinkey so far now. It along with the rest all arrived securely and in a timely manner thanks to everyone on the Pen Venture team.

Lovely design, sloppy on the details

I absolutely love this design, but item I received left a lot to be desired in terms of quality and attention to detail. First, the nib suffered from hard starts. Furthermore, in the pen I received, the microengraving on the finial band is so far off centre that the taller letters are clipped at the top (please see attached photo). For me, neither of these is acceptable at this price point. After exchanging a number of e-mails with Gravitas customer support, they agreed to send me replacement parts for the filling mechanism (including the finial band) and the nib unit.

When the parts finally arrived, I was shocked and disappointed to see that the new filling mechanism did not work at all (the two parts at the tip of the plunger are stuck together, even a generous application silicone grease did not get them to move freely). Furthermore, the colour and texture of the anodising on the end finial of the new filling mechanism did not match the original pen, and the finial band has a serial number that was never present in the original pen (see attached photo). I can’t help thinking that someone out there has a “unique limited edition” pen with the exact same serial number on their pen as I do on my spare filing mechanism, which feels wrong. I contacted Gravitas customer support again, and they informed me that the anodising colour cannot be matched perfectly between batches (strange, considering that the anodising on all the parts of the original item I received was well matched), and that the serial number is not a warranty issue, so they will take no further action to try to remedy the situation. After inquiring about the faulty filling mechanism that didn't work even after generous application of silicone grease, I have not received any reply at all from Gravitas, which is disappointing to say the least.

After nearly 2 months, I am now left with a selection of mismatched and dysfunctional parts and disappointment. I find this to be a huge shame since the design itself is so lovely. Some of the issues I raised above are certainly nit-picky, but in my opinion reasonable expectations to have at this price point. Anyway, I hope that my review will at least allow others to have more realistic expectations of the quality of this product.

Pleasantly impressed !

For a better understanding by on-lookers, I switch into Romanian.
La sugestia inteligenței artificiale, pentru stiloul Parker VP din folosință în momentul discuției, am comandat cerneala Aurora 100th Anniversary Blue, de pe site-ul Pen House. Ei bine, atât de mult îmi place cum scrie această cerneală, fără asemănare cu Parker Blue-Black / Pelikan 4001 Royal Blue, încât am vrut să mai comand încă o călimară ca rezervă ( deși pe moment nu este cazul având în vedere volumul generos al călimării ). Nu mai aveau...căutând pe net alți furnizori de această cerneală de lux rarissimă, am găsit că era în stoc la Dumneavoastră. Așa că, am comandat-o ! Apreciez enorm această cerneală, pentru ambalajul exterior inedit ( inclusiv pungulița ! ), pentru călimara elegantă, cu aspect vintage deopotrivă, pentru eticheta elegantă de siguranțare a dopului, scrisă în italiană și în engleză ( de altfel ca tot ceea ce este scris în exteriorul călimării ! ) pentru dopul intern fixat în gâtul călimării ( ceea ce nu am întâlnit la alte călimări !! ) pentru a preveni scurgerea ccidentală a cernelii. Și în fine, cerneala...are o culoare albastră fără asemănare cu nuanța de la Pelikan 4001 Royal Blue, Parker Washable Blue, Parker Blue-Black. Este o culoare albastră care cere să fie scrisă, care devine plăcută și după uscarea pe hârtie ! Nu își modifică aspectul față de momentul scrierii. Este o cerneală umedă, care încântă și stiloul ! prin calitatea și proprietățile sale. Îmi face o plăcere deosebită / enormă să o folosesc cu stiloul Parker 45 Classic, Made in USA, cu peniță de aur 14 K. Pentru că acest stilou merită ce-i mai bun !
