A fantastic value from Pilot, the Metropolitan is a favorite first fountain pen. Part of the Retro Pop collection, this purple metal bodied pen has a patterned accent band, silver trim, and a steel nib. It comes with a black Pilot ink cartridge and a squeeze converter to use with bottled ink, or you can upgrade to a Con-40 converter if you prefer that style. It comes packaged in a gift box.

IT IS VERY LIGHT. I don't care for it but my wife likes it. The only think she don't like about it is ink steady leaks out of it. Kind of like sweat out of it. ink gets everywhere
I love the Pilot Metropolitan pens. The colors are fun and they are well made. I also love Truphae and recommend them.
Great pen!
This is a fantastic pen that I got for my wife, who is new to fountain pens. Its weight and balance are great for prolonged use and offers consistently nice lines.
I love the fun stub nib on this cute little pen. It was, as usual, carefully packed and arrived in pristine condition.
