PARKER Jotter XL Ballpoint Pen | Grey Lacquer with Gold Trims | Medium Point | Blue Ink Refill | Gift Box | Perfect Graduation Gifts

Lovely pen, very pleased with the purchase, usual Parker quality.

Lovely looking pen. Fits in with the other more recent Jotters while simultaneously setting itself apart with it's distinctive mix of complimentary colours. I can see why some people might hate the mix, but to me it just works.Very smart/sharp/striking appearance, my pictures don't do it justice. Royal Blue version of pen included in one picture as comparison. My pictures are a bit too dark, but I otherwise feel still give a more accurate idea of the *colour* of the actual pen compared to the product pictures on here. The barrel looks brown in all the official product pictures I've seen, but in real life is very much a dark, but glossy, grey, like a gun metal colour I guess!As I've seen someone else mention (maybe another review on here?), I've also noticed it's got an almost slippery feel, the barrel is very smooth I guess, but not to the point where I've noticed it affects writing, just a little odd at first when you pick it up, although I've only had the pen for a few days.Ink is the standard reliable Parker refill. Blue as (nearly) always, wish they'd be a bit more imaginative... Even the Bond Street Black version comes with a blue refill, it's not like Parker don't also make black refills is it? Of course, you can swap it out yourself, as I intend to do, probably to black as it's a more fitting ink colour for this pen than blue, IMHO.I'd definitely recommend this pen to others.

An elegant pen. The nib glides across the paper and the pen itself feels good and balanced in the hand.

This Parker Jotter pen is a more fancy version of the cheaper standard Jotter. It's a good size for small to medium sized hands,but still usable for larger hands. There's a XL version available for those who prefer a slightly bigger model.

Feels high quality been using for a while now. Ink still hasn't run out, great value and pen flows really smooth

I paid £12. For that price, I can't fault this pen one bit.

Smooth and balanced writing. Cartridge supplied with the pen did not fit - too long.

This is a supper quality pen from Parker. Highly recommend it.
