Cross Star Wars Townsend C-3PO Limited Edition
The Cross Townsend Stars Wars C-3PO Limited Edition fountain pen is both a superb everyday writer as well as a knowing homage to this easily ruffled android. Each pen is provided with your choice of 14k solid gold nib.
This is the fountain pen you're looking for.
The 23k gold-plated cap and barrel, 18k solid gold nib, and classic Townsend styling make this an appropriate pen for any occasion. But take a closer look and you'll notice the subtle design references to this ever-anxious android.
Etched lines on the surface echo the contours of the C-3PO character and also provide a pleasing added texture in the hand. The convenient clutch cap mechanism adds to the ease of usage -- this is a pen that will be ready to write when you are.
The C-3PO uses Cross brand ink cartridges, and the included push converter also allows for the use of any bottled fountain pen ink. This is a full-sized and well-balanced pen that will be a comfortable fit for most users.
If you're a collector looking to store this pen in mint condition, we are happy to provide it un-inked. But if you're planning to take advantage of the superb writing qualities for which the Townsend is known, we're happy to provide our usual complimentary nib set-up and optimization services.
Nib tuning, as it is often called, ensures that your collectible fountain pen will not just be beautiful to look at, but will also be an excellent everyday writer.
Each limited edition number is engraved on the front of the end cap. An inset top detail is inspired by C-3PO's iconic eyes.
