Platinum Century 3776 Fountain Pen – Sands of Komodo (North America Exclusive)

The “Sands of Komodo” Fountain Pen is a stunningly new edition that reminds every pen enthusiast of a tropical paradise. It is the second edition of Platinum’s North America Exclusive, a successor of the Century 3776 Carnelian, and is continuously inspired by beautiful water scenes. Derived from the tropical seas and the pink sand beaches of the Komodo Island, this pen comes in a translucent aqua blue body paired with rose gold trim. Originally released in 1978, Platinum 3776, is one of Platinum’s iconic pen series and over the years, Platinum has added many colors as well as limited and special editions to the 3776 line. 3776 stands for the height of Mount Fuji, the highest mountain and when it was first released in 1978, it was awarded the “Good Design Prize” by the Japanese government. In 2011, the “Century 3776” series was released in honor of the approaching 100th anniversary of Platinum and was designed to maintain the quality standards defined by the original 3776 combined with the needs of a modern fountain pen user: new sleek design, comfortable writing balance, and smooth flow. Century 3776 employs Platinum’s own “Slip and Seal Mechanism” that employs a spring in the cap to force an air tight closure around the nib, thus preventing ink from drying out in this fountain pen for up to a year.  Nib: 14k gold (Rose Gold Nib) Length: 5.5 in (14 cm) PNB-35000NA #59 Rose Gold trim North America Exclusive Converter included Replacement cartridges available Compatible with Platinum converters
