Review: Very close to Rotring 600 - Slightly lighter weight than a Rotring 600, but still comparable. Plastic insides but I don't think that should affect durability. The lead jam clearing pin stuck in the bottom of the eraser is a nice touch, but once you change erasers, if you ever do, you'll have to transfer that pin. The knurling on this is much closer--nearly identical--to the Rotring 600 than that on the TWSBI. I prefer the look and feel of this over the TWSBI but the Rotring 600 is still the clear winner over all three. Nevertheless, this pencil meets my need of having a Rotring 600 with a retractable point. Compared to the Pentel Graphgear 1000, this pencil seems much sturdier and certainly more traditional. I find the grip on the Graphgear 1000 to wobble perceptively which detracts from my enjoyment of using that pencil. Review: May be the nicest mechanical pencil out there! - Probably better than the Rotring 600 OR 800. Better knurling than the 600's sandpaper feel and better because it has a retractable tip. It's even better than the 800 as both have retractable tips but the Retro has ZERO movement and feels VERY solid. You can't make the same claim for the 800's somewhat jittery tip. And the Rotring Pro is below all of these as it has the red plastic "joiner" piece right in the middle of the pencil making it less sturdy and prone to failure. So it's currently the nicest pencil of the bunch - in my opinion of course. ## Features - Mechanical pencil - .7mm lead ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003QIMQ1Y | | Additional Features | Retractable | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #231,426 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #1,486 in Mechanical Pencils | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand Name | Retro 51 | | Closure Type | Retractable | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (59) | | Drill Point | Fine | | Grip Type | non slip | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Hardness | HB | | Included Components | mechanical pencil | | Ink Base | Water | | Ink Color | Silver | | Item Dimensions | 5 x 1 x 1 inches | | Item Weight | 0.2 Pounds | | Line Size | 0.7 Millimeters | | Manufacturer | RETRO 1951 | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Name | Retro 51 Hex-O-Matic | | Model Number | HEX-615PK | | Recommended Uses For Product | Drafting, Sketching, Writing | | Style | hexagonal | | Theme | Writing Instrument | | UPC | 735725013065 | | Unit Count | 1.000 Count | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Retro 51 - **Color:** Silver - **Ink Color:** Silver - **Material:** Metal ## Images ![Retro 51 HEX-O-MATIC - Silver Mechanical Pencil 0.7MM - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51lY6EIVPlL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very close to Rotring 600 *by A***M on March 9, 2018* Slightly lighter weight than a Rotring 600, but still comparable.

I own the rotring 600, rotring 800, Kaweco special brass and legendär brass mechanical pencils (all within similar price ranges or higher) and this Retro 51 Hexomatic is definitely a stand out. Haven't had any issues with graphite breaking or sliding (I use 2B graphite). Feels great in the hand. Really satisfying to write with. Feels like it's really well made and will last. Honestly want to buy another. ## Frequently Bought Together - Retro 51 HEX-O-MATIC - Silver Mechanical Pencil 0.7MM - Hexomatic Ballpoint Silver Pen - Retro 51 Hex-o-Matic Black Ballpoint Pen - HEX-601BP --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/9814400-retro-51-hex-o-matic-silver-mechanical-pencil-0-7mm](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/9814400-retro-51-hex-o-matic-silver-mechanical-pencil-0-7mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
