After seeing the pics of the Pilot Capless Decimo special edition pen, the Pilot Sesenta, I decided I really wanted one. I found one at a good price from Japan, so I pounced on it. Paid for it on the weekend, shipped out on Monday, recieved on Wednesday morning (that's fast shipping!).

Cut & paste from an eBay auction:

The one and only retractable nib fountain pen from Pilot capless fountain pen collection. The hassle free fountain pen comes with the 18K gold nib with offers the effortless push-click mechanism writing experience. It is now available in the Limited Edition version "Sesenta" deep brown marble design. The limited edition is only made available for the Japan market, limited to 400 pieces worldwide. The size of the fountain pen is the slimmer and lighter version, same as the DECIMO collection. The writing tool comes with the chrome trims and clip, with the LE name "Sesenta" engraved on the clip. The fountain pen uses the cartridge or pump converter refilling system.


Anyway, here come the unboxing pics!

Simple cardboard box, not as nice as the box that comes with the new Orange VP seen in other threads.

There's the pen! Very nice looking marble lacquer, the same Decimo shape that we all know and love.
