The Cross Century II Matte Grey Ballpoint Pen combines tradition and modernity in a bolder design with a wider profile than the classic original Century. The lightweight metal body is exceptionally well-balanced, providing comfort even during longer writing sessions, and features a smooth twist mechanism that discreetly retracts the ballpoint tip. The matte grey finish conveys sobriety and contemporary elegance, making this ballpoint pen suitable for both professional use and special occasion gifts. It includes a Cross ballpoint refill and comes in a luxury gift box, ideal for giving as a present. It is compatible with Cross refills, ensuring long-lasting use.
