The famous capless fountain pen from the century-old Japanese brand has been given a makeover in seaside colours! A veritable ode to seaside holidays, the Capless Seashore features a gradient of blue colours, from darkest to lightest, ending in a pearly white.
First created in 1963 after 6 years of fabulous engineering, the Pilot Capless continues to make its mark both with its original design and its ingenious, time-tested technology. The complex precision mechanism with which it is equipped and which allows the nib to extend and retract is undoubtedly not unrelated to its immense success.
Without a cap – hence the name – and with a push button, it can be operated with one hand. A first press and the nib is revealed, a second and it disappears inside the body, activating at the same time a tiny shutter which, by closing, protects it from any impurity and prevents it from drying out.
Made of steel with a coloured lacquer coating, the body is made up of two parts, both of which are decorated with a thin ring and joined together by a metal screw thread. A larger ring at the end of the fountain pen foreshadows the push button. Its unmistakable clip is located on the grip and tapers towards the nib so that it can be held without any difficulty.
The Capless Seashore features stainless steel trims. This model is in a limited edition of 2024 pieces worldwide. The serial number is engraved on one of the rings.
The nib:
Its nib made of 18-carat rhodium-plated gold is elegantly slim, which accentuates the aesthetics of the Capless. It is available in three sizes: F, M and B
To fill the fountain pen, simply unscrew the body part at the ring to reveal the converter attached to the fountain pen. The converter can also be replaced by a cartridge.
You’ll receive your Capless Seashore fountain pen by Pilot in a magnificent box created just for the occasion.

Je cherchais depuis longtemps à acquérir un Capless. J’ai craqué pour cette édition limitée, qui me donnera peut-être l’illusion de contempler le Pacifique ;-) Reste à trouver l’encre adaptée…
