Custom 742 Fountain pen by Pilot – an array of nibs for a timeless model
The Custom 742 is one of the most popular fountain pens in Japan. Its timelessly elegant black resin is enhanced by golden accents. The ballpoint clip, borrowed from Namiki and reserved for the brand’s finest models, lets you easily clip your fountain pen to your jacket pocket or notebook. The central ring proudly displays the model’s name.
Its nib:
Pilot offers you an anthology of No. 10 14-carat gold nibs, with no fewer than 14 to choose from! From the thinnest line thickness to the thickest, not forgetting calligraphy nibs, all you have to do is make your choice. As well as the “classic” nibs (EF, F, FM, M, B), you can choose :
- PO (posting – extra extra fine), BB (extra broad), C (coarse – extra extra broad) thicknesses
- soft feathers : SF, SFM, SM
- calligraphy nibs: SU (Stub) and flexible FA (Falcon)
- WA (Waverly) nib: flexible nib, point slightly upwards, similar thickness to M, popular with left-handers because it adapts to any angle.
You will receive your Custom 742 fountain pen by Pilot with its converter and a black ink cartridge in a black box.

Très satisfait de la ligne très sobre du CUSTOM 742 qui lui confère une élégance classique soulignée par une magnifique plume remarquablement adaptée à la taille du stylo. La légèreté en main (non posté) et la précision du trait avec la plume SF font du 742 le compagnon idéal pour les longues séances d’écriture manuscrite.
Quel plaisir de lire votre satisfaction, cher Jean-François !
Merci pour ce retour si détaillé et d’avoir acquis cette merveille dans notre boutique 🙂
Je voulais essayer une plume calligraphique depuis longtemps : la plume falcon est magique !
Nous ne pouvons qu’être d’accord avec vous 😉
Merci, chère Sophie, pour votre commentaire !
