About the Visconti Torpedo
Limited to only 288 pieces, the Visconti Torpedo fountain pen has a cobalt blue carbon fiber cap and barrel with either rose gold or palladium-plated trim. Inspired by the Bolidismo Movement, an architecture and design movement created by a group of young Italian designers and architects in the mid-1980s.
The Visconti Torpedo alludes to both the car model and English term for a torpedo, a shape for movement and speed. The Visconti Torpedo has an ogival shape with round tapered ends. The body has a large oval ink viewing window on each side with a skeletal body. This allows the ink and the power filler mechanism to be easily seen.
The Visconti Torpedo fountain pen has been fitted with an 18kt gold nib plated with Ruthenium or rose gold vermeil to match the trim and comes in a large gift box.

Guaranteed Quality
Each Visconti Torpedo Fountain Pens we sell is guaranteed to be genuine, authentic and will arrive brand new & unused!
The Torpedo pen has a carbon fiber cap and barrel with a torpedo or cigar-shape with metal ends on both the top of the cap and bottom of the barrel. There is a slightly different shape on the two ends with a little more pointed towards the end. Then it has a skeletal design on the body with a large viewing window where you can see inside the pen and see the filling mechanism.
At the bottom of the cap is a band with Visconti engraved and some vertical lines engraved on it that as well. The pen has the traditional Visconti arch-shape clip design with the Visconti logo. The clip opens nice and easily. Great clip that Visconti has on their pens. The cap is threaded and unscrews. We don't really recommend probably posting the cap on this pen. It is a pretty good-sized pen and you wouldn't need that posted.
The pen has a metal section with the same chrome color as the rest of the pen trim, and then a palladium nib on the pen with a black feed on the back side of the nib. There is also another ink viewing window here between the body and the section so you can see the ink levels as well as in the body of the pen.
It does have a piston filling system, so that is controlled by the knob on the end of the barrel of the pen. You will be able see that move as you control it here to fill it. Great pen, great design. This is a limited edition and there is only 188 pens made worldwide. Get your Visconti Torpedo fountain pen at PenChalet.com!

Visconti Torpedo Reviews
Love my Visconti Torpedo. Writes smooth and feels great if you like pens with some weight to it.

I debated for a long time (daily for weeks) before I decided to get it. This is the smoothest writing pen in my collection, which is largely Pelikan and Visconti. I never thought a pen would top Pelikan M800, but this one does.
