The Pilot Custom 823 fountain pen gift set comes with a Pilot Gift Box, a Use and Care Guide and a 70 ml Pilot fountain pen ink in black colour.

Pilot Custom 823 Fountain Pen is one of Pilot’s flagship fountain pens. This pen combines classic styling with a touch of modernity. The amber body colour and gold trim are part of the classic look and the transparent demonstrator creates a feeling of modernity. It also features a 14k gold nib and an innovative vacuum filling system.

Thanks to the vacuum filling system, the Custom 823 holds more ink than the standard cartridge and is a breeze to fill. Simply unscrew and pull out the plunger, dip the nib up to the neck in your ink and depress the plunger. The ink is drawn up into the pen under vacuum pressure as you push the plunger into the pen body. To keep the ink where it should be, the pen has a built-in valve. When the plunger knob is fully tightened, it seals off the ink reservoir. This means that in order to write, you need to loosen the plunger knob to allow ink to flow to the nib. The knob only needs to come out 2 mm from the body.

The pen is slightly longer than most fountain pens, making it comfortable in the hand uncapped. The body is remarkably well-balanced no matter when it is capped or not capped.

*Please do not try to unscrew the grip section. It is not meant to unscrew and may crack.

This is an absolutely beautiful pen which I would highly recommend to anyone. I love the feel of the weight of the pen and how smooth the nib is. The vacuum filling system was an initial concern as I would want to clean the pen thoroughly each time. I have decided however to ink this pen in the same color family. Overall, the negatives far outweighed the negatives. I would buy this pen again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful Pilot Pen

What a fantastic pen, looks great. Writes beautifully, feels great in my hand. Oh so smooth, love the vacuum filler and the view of the ink. Came in a lovely presentation box with a bottle of really good ink. Would highly recommend treating yourself to one of these wonderful pens

My Custom 823 is beautiful and an absolute dream to write with, and has fast become one of my two favourite pens. The M nib provides a smooth, wet writing experience with a barely perceptible resistance against the paper, so it doesn't feel too slippery. The vacuum filling mechanism and full size of this pen makes it a touch heavier than a plastic converter pen, but it's very well balanced, pleasant and comfortable to write with, even in my small hand. It looks, feels, and behaves of quality, and I'm very pleased with my purchase. Shipping was quick to NSW.
