Description The Esterbrook Estie Accutron is a very special edition, and has been done in collaboration with Accutron to celebrate their 60th anniversary. The Esterbrook Estie Accutron fountain pen is made of green and gold swirled acrylic resin with a gold-plated clip. The clip has been specially engineered to easily slide in or out of a shirt pocket without assistance while still maintaining a firm grip. The Esterbrook Accutron Estie is available with a #6 JoWo steel MEDIUM nib only, with a special engraving that is only available on the Accutron pen. The Esterbrook Estie also includes a "Cushion Cap" closure system featuring a spring-loaded inner cap. This not only gives the cap a satisfyingly secure closure, but also prevents the nib from drying between uses! The Estie is designed to accept the specially designed Esterbrook MV (modern to vintage) nib adapter which is sold separately. The adapter allows the Estie fountain pen to accept an original Esterbrook Renew-Point nib! The MV adapter makes the Estie a perfect bridge between past and future Esterbrook pens. One short international cartridge and a converter for use with bottled ink are included with the Estie to get you started writing immediately. ** Please note that items in our Outlet are a final sale ** From the distributor: To celebrate Accutron's most recent 60th Anniversary, the brand collaborated with a true American Original, Esterbrook Pens, once one of the largest pen manufacturers in the United States. Proudly used by U.S. Presidents, Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy when signing legislation, Charles Schulz when creating his famous Peanuts comics, as well as other various Disney artists, Esterbrook Pens is a company that shares the same vision and passion for innovation as Accutron. A year later, these two brands continue their partnership with a new Accutron by Esterbrook Special Edition pen series. In 1960, Accutron launched and revolutionized the timekeeping industry with the introduction of the first truly electronic timepiece utilizing a tuning fork for accuracy. The following year, in 1961, President Kennedy, with a stroke of his Esterbrook pen, wrote the historic speech, later presented before a joint session of Congress, setting the United States on a course to the moon. Thereafter, Accutron technology was used by NASA on dozens of missions. We offer Free Shipping on all orders over $59 for US customers, and for orders over $250 for our Canadian customers.
