To celebrate 125 years of fascinating pen making, Conklin introduces a unique new limited edition fountain pen: the 125th Anniversary Nozac Classic. This extraordinary design concept developed by pen expert Dante Del Vecchio combines modern technology with exquisite materials.

Made from a solid rod of anodized avionic aluminum, both the cap and the barrel are resistant to damage and tarnish, providing a timeless elegance and durability. The cap is equipped with a magnetic twist mechanism, adding an addictive satisfaction each time it is used. The orange body is complemented by black PVD-plated aluminum trim.

The crescent-shaped clip is inspired by Conklin’s timeless icon of writing instruments, the Crescent Filler. The clip is custom made using Metal Injection Molding (MIM) technology to produce the intricate details of the design. The MIM process uses a mold that is injected with metal powder and resin. It is then sintered at 2,000 degrees heat, leading to evaporation of plastic, leaving space for metal that is shaped into a specific form.

The Conklin Classic 125 adds a brand new filling technology- the FAST FILLER. Unlike all other piston-filling predecessors, the Fast Filler activates with a single turn to completely fill the pen, and does so up to five times faster than any other piston filler! The Fast Filler holds up to 1ml of ink.

Inspired by the 10-side faceted Nozac piston-filler models produced back in 1933, this pen features a newly redesigned Word Gauge. Deep laser-engraved and located at the central part of the pen, the word gauge indicates the level of the remaining ink in the barrel. It is marked with roman numerals one through seven, representing increments of 1000 words that can be written with the remaining level of ink.

Designed with the writing experience in mind, the Nozac Classic 125 is well balanced, comfortable in the hand, and smooth on paper. It is outfitted with a premium two-tone 14k solid gold JoWo nib with a special crescent-shaped breathing hole and the Conklin brand name.

Each Conklin 125th Anniversary Nozac Classic comes in a custom solid wood and leather gift box. The cover of the gift box is secured by four magnets and a perfectly fitted sleeve complements the overall look with a futuristic, eye-catching design.

The collection is limited to 125 pieces of each color. Made in Italy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill a fountain pen with ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It depends on the pen's filling mechanism, which you can find in the Technical Specs section above. 

Here's a quick definition of the most common filling mechanisms:

  • Cartridge - A small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write! Check out our quick guide here.
  • Converter - A detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter. Here's a video for how to fill a cartridge/converter pen using a LAMY pen as an example.
  • Eyedropper - A pen that utilizes the entire barrel as a reservoir for ink. Ink is directly filled into the barrel, allowing for a high ink capacity. Here's a video on how to do it!
  • Piston - A type of filling system that uses a retracting plunger inside a sealed tube to draw ink into a pen. They are typically either twist or push-operated. These pens cannot accept cartridges or a converter, and only fill from bottled ink.
  • Vacuum - A push-style piston that uses pressure to fill the large pen body with ink. They seal the ink chamber when closed, making it ideal for flying without risk of leaking. Check out our video on how to use a vac filler here.

Check out more info on these filling mechanisms including a video on how to fill each one on our blog.

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
