I received this pen from my late Aunt in 2003 ( I chose it) so it is very precious to me. I use it most days, I keep it close and receive many comments from people when they notice that I use the 'Real Thing' as opposed to the normal ball point used and loved by many. I have never had any trouble with it whatsoever, I have used it with both cartridges and ink filler. The cartridges obviously more convenient if I go on holiday. I did however, have the security at the Airport remove them from me on one occasion. I think everyone should own a fountain pen at least once in their life, the pride one feels in taking it out to sign forms or write a cheque is enormous. Would highly recommend.

My Cross fountain pen is of the finest quality as is always the case with this extremely good manufacturer (I'm not being paid or coerced into writing my comments, honest.). I have purchased quite a few Cross pens over the years and still have most of them, except the couple that were stolen. Having tried out my new pen I find it glides over the paper beautifully, improving even my writing. The construction is of a very high standard, so much so I can say that this is a product that will last for years. Oh, by the way, their customer service is absolutely terrific, although you'll only need to contact them if you have broken you pen yourself. Thank you, Cross.

I recently purchased this pen with gift vouchers to treat myself after I had received a Cross ball-point pen as gift last year. This is a very nice pen to hold, it works faultlessly and is nicely balanced. I think it comes with a medium nib which suited me, I am sure other nibs are available. Finger prints tend to mark the casing but are easily removed with a soft cloth. I own lots of fountain pens by Parker and Mont Blanc etc, this however is one of my favourites. Just one point the ink cartridges are quite small and wouldn't last long if used continuously, I think an ink filler convertor is available. The lifetime guarantee is a handy feature.

I’d forgotten how wonderful it is to write with a fountain pen, it took me days to decide which one to buy. I know that Cross are a fantastic Company with a lifelong guarantee, but it still took me a while to decide which Cross model I would get. I chose perfectly for me, I even seen to be a much neater writer with this pen. It’s very stylish and feels great in your hand perfectly balanced, It’s not too wide, but for me it’s better than the slim models, the flow of the ink is perfect. Just ordered my line a day diary, I’m really looking forward to all my writing.

I was unhappy with the first pen I received as it was writing a bit thick (with a fine nib). Got a replacement and was better.Then purchased a Waterman Hemisphere - similar steel with gold platted nib. For a short time I thought the Waterman with fine nib was better. After about an hour of continuous writing I was 100% sure the Cross was a lot better.A solid nib that does not bend with every writing line and a lifetime warranty! Also, does not scratch/cut my pages!Would happily recommend as a daily office pen that has quality!

It's a very nice pen. It feels heavy and is small in size. I purchased it because I was tired of buying boxes of 20 pens then losing all of them. By purchasing a pen of this quality / price, I will look after it!It feels so good - just pure quality! And from the description, it contains 23 karrat gold!!! As well as this, you get a lifetime warranty.I dropped a star because the gift box was very nice and I wanted to keep it. Unfortunately, it was taped and the tape ripped parts of the gift box.Highly recommended!

I was extremely pleased with this pen, which I bought with my birthday money in February. It looks really good, is well-balanced, and writes beautifully. It is stylish and attractive to look at, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends and family. I could see, however, that if you like a largeish, chunky pen, this might not be for you, as it is a little on the small side, but I actually found that to be a plus point. An excellent product all round.

I have had this pen for a year now; it looks great (no wear on the gold plating), is a nice medium size and weight, writes beautifully and consistently, and has been virtually leak-proof despite being carried in pockets, in laptop bags, on aeroplanes, taken cycling and occasionally dropped.This is by a distance the best (and least leaky) fountain pen I have had, and I thoroughly recommend it to anyone.

Pen writes nicely and smoothly...although had to wait a few days to try it out as it wasn't supplied with a single ink cartridge, which I feel is poor given its price tag (even cheap razors come with a blade to get you going!). Feels nice enough when writing and light, though don't like having to use force when replacing the lid: feel this could be smoother/softer. The pen looks elegant and expensive.

No problem with this purchase - came to time as advised. Thought I was going to have to send it back as couldn't get top off at first but it was just a very tight fit. I love the pen - I have had one before for many years but unfortunately it disappeared before Christmas so this is a replacement. Writes beautifully and is always admired in the office. Shame it's made in China though!

I was introduced to Cross pens during my work in the US. I have used their ball point pens for over thirty years but have always used UK manafactured Ink pens. My, up till now, favourite pen manufacturer has now moved away from the UK and I have been re-introduced to Cross ink pens. What a pleasure I have been missing for a very long time, I will not make the same mistake again.

Bought this pen to replace one I had bought previously, but had been lost. D already has the other pen in this make. Used Amazon as best price. Bought the refills too. He likes both pens and was delighted that we were able to find another the same. Has small hands for a man and finds the pen nice to hold and good to write with.

You can tell this pen is higher quality, than some as it writes beautifully. Even when it hasn't been used for a while it still writes straight away as opposed to some cheaper pens which tend to dry up a bit. It feels very comfortable in the hand when writing with it, and it looks good as well. A nice instrument to own.

Very pleased with my new Cross rollerball pen. Feels really nice in the hand, writes beautifully and looks so good. Only gripe is that the cap won't stay on the end of the pen while I'm writing and I don't want to push it too hard for fear of scratching the barrel, hope I don't put the lid down and misplace it.
