Sleek Design Retro 51 Tornado Vintage Metalsmith Rollerball Pen P51 Mustang

As Retro 51 puts it, ‘Life is too short to carry an ugly pen’. And we agree. Their bright colours and cool designs have more than a hint of nostalgia about them, and all their pens are made with good old-fashioned values in mind.

The Vintage Metalsmith is a retractable rollerball which features a lacquer-coated steel barrel in a range of unique throw-back designs. There is a knurled metal twist-action button at the end, to extend the tip, and a slotted metal pocket clip. It’s supplied in a vintage-themed cylinder which doubles as a pen stand as well as a protective case.

A tribute to the Mustang P-51, the barrel features an acid-etched printed design which includes rivets and exhaust pipes, inspired by the American long-range fighter plane known as the ‘Red Tail’ because of its distinctive red markings.

Refill with either a liquid ink or ballpoint refill.
