Vantage Design
The main attraction of this pen is the uniqueness
of its open and close modes and mechanism,
revealing and hiding logos at the middle part of
the pen, closed when writing and open when
not in use. Other than that, it can be a great
conversation starter that triggers curiosities and
desirability. Overall, this pen is interesting and
professional at the same time convey a sense of
mystery as well.
Dimension
Overall diameter of the pen is 12mm, and the
height is 145mm in disengage mode and roughly
the same when in engage mode counting the tip
of the ball point, otherwise it will minus 10mm
when the overall body changed.
Mechanism & Refills
The mechanism is similar to twist open pens
but with a few adjustment where the top shell
be the fix point and the bottom shell follows a
track inside that twist the bottom shell upward
with a 90 degree rotation. Since the top part
is fixed, the refill must also be fixed to the top
as the bottom part retracts and reveal the tip
of the ball point, therefore a special refill is
needed to install backward to the top shell.
