Can confirm that the Jetstream SXR-200 refills fit perfectly in this pen. There is also a Hi-Tec-C refill called the LHRF-20C4 (available on jetpens) that fits. It is a 0.4mm refill and the tip is superb just like other Hi-Tec-C pens.
Good review. Ironically I understand why they chose not to have a blue in there as you in the German-speaking building/construction industry rarely use blue. Black and red are for marking up drawings or for note-making at meetings and the pencil is for sketching. I have to date not used the eraser in my Rotring pencils as it freaks me out how little eraser there is space for. The only pencil I think has enough eraser in it is the Faber castell grip plus. If you use a Rotring daily, you would not use its tiny eraser at the end. It would last a day max. This one goes straight onto my wishlist for Christmas :)
Yeah, i have rotrings that were from my father and mother's days in uni and they still have the eraser on, barely anyone uses those. It's more like an emergency thing if you happen to not have an eraser with you.
You can put eraser refill on this one. I unscrew mine on the red ring button you can turn it counter clockwise and put an eraser inside like a storage.😊
A lot of references to the rOtring Trio prior to this multi-pen, but there was a rOtring 600 even before that which looks nearly exactly like this with knurled grip. It's definitely less "engineered" than it was before. They definitely took a cheaper route with construction, although it still looks to be a pretty solid multi-pen. But one major disappointment for me: the "3" is "2+1"... 2 ballpoints plus 1 pencil. Why force this restriction? They should make each slot capable of housing a pencil. This way it would be possible if someone wants to install a 0.3 mm, 0.5 mm, and 0.7 mm instead of D1 ballpoint refills.
This is a cool multi pen. I wanted me one but I have been recently spending on on my other hobby. I translated a review for this multi pen and it definitely doesn't have a eraser.
I have an old Rotring Trio, and discovered that getting refills for it was pretty hard. Some would just fall out due to being too narrow. Others would not retract back into the pen due to the tip being slightly too wide. Even newly purchased rOtring own brand refills were not a great fit. I tried a Zebra gel D1 as a last resort and that was actually the best fit. However I wanted to try an Ohto needlepoint. It turns out you can cheat and nobody will know! Put the refill into the tube holder and then tape over it with scotch tape. The other downsides of the old Trio design are, it's very smooth and slippery due to absence of knurling, and the grip unscrews all the time. This new rOtring 600 3 in 1 looks like it will adress both of these issues with its glued on knurled grip. Thanks for the review!
Ever tried a skill craft b3 aviator before? They're really popular among flight crew in the military. It's the most minimal/sleek multi pen I've ever used.
Yes and a very fragile pocket clip too, it broke in my pocket so easily just squatting down to pick up something heavy. I have an pocket clip of an old worn out Staedtler on it, a tough thing to manage to get on it.
Pretty close to the perfect pen! The only thing that could be better is making it a 3+1 although I'm not sure the cam mechanism could be made to work. Also, would be nice to have an eraser. Regardless, this has now replaced my Quattros in daily use, seems much more robust .
Jiminy no eraser for $50. Was excited about this but it woulnt replace my beloved edc Skilcraft B3 Aviator with no eraser. It does look solidly built though. So I imagine it would hold up to some hard use like as a construction work pen/pencil, which is what my B3 gets used for a bunch. If you could put a .07mm pencil insert in it, it might just be worth it for the extra assumed durability of the pen body and the more durable lead thickness for an all around hearty edc multipen.
So I bought one of these back in the late 80’s and still have it so it is an original Rotring Newton. Loved this pen and have had fun with having friends over the last 30 years try and work out how to get each colour. Still has original ink cartridges and eraser. Remember paying over $130 for it back in the day but have no idea what it would be worth today. Any idea?
@@ramonruizgiono3873 when i eventually buy this pen (the white version), i'm going to fill it with a monteverde d1 superbroad 1.4 mm refill in black and a kaweco d1 needlepoint 0.5 mm refill in black
More for collectors? I've got one on order because I want a more solid robust pen/pencil. I have a Skilcraft with a soft stylus at the end. The rubber fell apart and the pocket clip has bent and broke off. Having some other Rotring pencils like the Rapid Pro, I'm expecting a solid writing implement here.
It's a cool pen and I love the Rotring 600 series.....bit I think it's a shame they didn't leave the mechanism the same as the old Newton/600 Trio I just watched a video on it and its gravity deployment and then twist to retract mechanism is way cooler than this Feels like they cheaped out with this version when they could have revived a legend
@@unsharpen so then schneider refills would fit into the Rotring too, theoretically, right? I ask coz you had mentioned in another video about jetstream 4in 1 (premium) pens taking schneider refills (the metal ones)
I love the Rotring design but is there something available with a regular ballpen + stylus pen? Or maybe a "refill" with a stylus tip or something? I'm just getting confused looking for one and all I can find are pretty weird ones or super cheap ones. But I want a nice pen for my work but I do have to constantly switch between stylus and ballpen, yet I'm not working on a desk and don't want to take even more individual pens with me. Google definitely isn't a big help for me right now lol. Having a 3 in one with ballpen, stylus and graphite would be the absolute dream lol.
Can this be used as a multi pencil? In other words, can all the components be mechanical pencil? I have been using Rotring mechanical pencils for drawing for about 5 years now and I love them. I use three different lead sizes. It would be great if I could have them all in one.
Hey how stiff is the rotation mechanism on your 3-in-1 compared to the rOtring 800? I just got a rOtring 600 3-in-1 and the mechanism feels _significantly_ stiffer than the 800. Somewhat unpleasant to use. Is that just the way it is or does yours have a relatively smooth action?
Just bought mine and I have the same stiff twist but I put a little petroleum jelly and pour a drop of baby oil in the mechanism and now it’s perfect. But I don’t tell you to do the same. This is just my idea. It’s still your’s to decide whether to apply it or not.
@@franxexcoel6170 I injected some silicone oil into the mechanism on mine and it feels great now. It feels like a fluid tripod head for videography if you’ve ever used one of those before. Buttery smooth

Is the pencil mechanism in these modern 600 multipens interchangeable with the original 600 trio pencil insert? I have an original with a broken pencil mechanism @unsharpen

Hey man, thanks for putting out these videos! You influenced me to pick up a few F701s and a bunch of Zerba Surari 0.7 refills. I love the F701 but after a thousand+ clicks my main one has gotten gritty. What would you recommend I do to slick it back up? Thanks!
This 3 in 2 pen is really great! and amazing! but I still wander why that great german pen company decided to release such a good pen in Japan first! in that very hard and though japanese market! rather than on the really huge and more flexible american market! but americans could still get this very good and fine pen from some American internet special sellers! though!
Unsharpen : Hey what’s up home slice lol jk. hey did you change the name of your channel? i thought it was called something else before maybe not, anyway that rotring looks pretty cool & i know you give it high marks, cause im pretty sure you talked about it before in a different video. I’ve been looking for a good mechanical pencil to exclusively carry in my backpack. About a week ago I bought a rite in the rain mechanical pencil i think it’s called the #99, I got it in red with red lead and it sucks, just a pain in the ass to use & the lead sucks cause it doesn’t come out very dark or legible. i know you’re probably a pretty busy guy but could you please tell me 2 or 3 good mechanical pencils besides the rotring 600?
In the video around 6:40 he shows the internals. The two pen refills are slid into a brass (gold looking) tube. The pencil part does not have this, so unfortunately it is not possible.
I would definitely discourage anyone from spending large sums of money on the original 600 Multipen or Newton Trio. My 600 Multipen (knurled) locked up and would no longer function shortly after I purchased it. rOtring offered to repair it and after several weeks in Germany, they notified me it couldn't be repaired and sent me the Newton Trio as a replacement. It worked for a little while (I don't recall how long, this was in 1997) the release cylinder ceased to work and to this day I have to push in and twist the plunger cap over and over and over again until I manage to get purchase with it and release the extended D1. That pen was my worst experience with rOtring (fortunately/unfortunately). The next most disappointing was the Quatro Data Pen, I believe I purchased it in 2001. It still functions properly, but not well. It was never as smooth or easy to use as the original rOtring Trio (the smooth cylindrical gravity assisted model). Now, that Trio has been with me since October, 1996 and aside from the slight difficulty of finding true rOtring D1 refills, still works like a champ!
Does the 3in1 have tip wobble when writing with the pencil like the 800 does or is it completely solid like a regular 600? Also is it similar in weight to a 600/800 or does it have the heft of a rapid pro?
The tip wobbles more than Rotring 800 and much heavier. Not much engineering to any Rotring pencils TBH, like _Orenzo Nero_ nor _Zebra DelGuard_ . Only good for showing off.
Can confirm that the Jetstream SXR-200 refills fit perfectly in this pen.

The super old 600 trios had knurling. Mine is 30 years old.
I don’t know about elsewhere, but in the UK this pen comes with a spare blue refill so you can swap out either the red or black refill if you prefer.
The silver sleeve presses into the barrel. The black sleeve rotates the mechanism by way of the indentation.

You should do a pen collection video...all your pens, good and bad ones of each type.
In the works! Maybe at a subscriber milestone or something
I'm not sure but I think the refills are adequate
can you swap out the pencil for a blue pen?
How easily could that inner core with the mechanism pop out if you press too hard while writing?
Let’s hope that they will release a 2020 600 rollerball as well, would be instant purchase for me, do you know if they have rollerballs planned?
I’ve wanted that for so long.
With multi-pen lead I typically just feed it down the tip from outside.
