## Description

Product Description Caran d'Ache Original Ballpoint Pen 0849.069 Hexagonal Aluminium Barrel with Goliath Cartridge Blue Medium Set Contains: 1x Ballpoint pen

Review: Eigentlich ist dieser Kugelschreiber ja ziemlich simpel und gnadenlos überteuert. Man zahlt für den Namen. Drei Dinge sind es allerdings, die mir sehr gut gefallen: Er ist sehr leicht, das Design sozusagen ikonisch und vor allem - das hat eigentlich gar nichts mit dem Kuli zu tun: Die Minen von Caran d'Ache schreiben sehr gut, ohne aber an der Spitze Klumpen zu bilden. Dies ist bei meinen ansonsten hochwertiger wirkenden Lamys leider nicht der Fall. Dort muss man immer kurz die Spitze reinigen und ein paar Striche ziehen, bevor man anfängt zu schreiben. Die Caran d'Ache-Minen funktionieren besser, sodass dieser Kugelschreiber zu meinem Favoriten geworden ist. Eine Anmerkung dazu: Leider sind die Minen nicht kompatibel, da kochen die Hersteller jeweils ihr eigenes Süppchen.
Review: The "Original" version is one of the most beautiful pens I've ever seen. As you turn the barrel it catches the light in unexpected ways, and is a delight for the eyes. It's also quite light - this is a good thing - and pairs well with the grey 849 mechanical pencil. The Goliath refill is not bad, too.

*by T***D on 11 March 2015*

Superb quality ballpoint pen - a timeless design presented in a 'crackle' finish raw aluminium hexagonal barrel that is secure and smooth to hold, and with the 'goliath' refill writes smoothly and evenly for page after page. The button and pocket clip are in a matt finish to complement the barrel colour. Completely silent reliable action, so no annoying 'clicks' in meetings when you are taking notes - this is a classic pen from a quality manufacturer ! Nice bespoke metal case with this model too - shame it doesn't hold more than the one pen
