J 1904449 Rotring 800 2mm silver
Year: 2017

Throughout the history of 600 or 800 models never had 2mm version so was quite surprised to see it happen later on.
Somewhere in 2013. when production of rotring changed to Japan only and 600 and 800 series also started new production.
Seem that 2mm model of 600 and 800 came in 2017. as continuation of this efforts.
Never intended to go so far to 2017. with the rotring museum displays, but these surely deserve their place on rarity alone.

J1904449 Rotring 800 2mm silver

Quite interesting and beautiful pen.
Hexagonal barrel ensuring fatigue-free writing and drawing.
The 800 has a click-advance mechanism, 6mm fixed sleeve and a metal pocket clip.

It has a knock advance instead of a clutch/drop system. All parts are made of metal.
Lacking sharpener, eraser and grade indicator.

Available in black and sliver with golden brass details.
Weight 28g.

Seems that it was discontinued very early in 2019. which makes it rare find these days.
