I've had mine a couple if years. The plastic gray cap is painted and the paint will flake off if scratched. I just use a regular Cristal cap. They are impregnated with color. I've gone through all the refills and am now pulling them from any Bic Stic pen I can find. Very durable. The painted metal can get scratches. It's called "patina".
Your comment is the single useful thing about this wholly unpleasant video. I was looking for confirmation that vanilla Bic Cristal cartridges and caps actually fitted this body properly. Thanks !
I can appriciatethe elevation of a simple, common project. The metallic color helps make the pen look more expensive. Would you use this often now that you own it, or have you found yourself reaching for another?
It is not metallic color but aluminum alloy body. Perfect for making my crosswords. Of course, I have other pens, but I found this elegant model, inexpensive and delivered with two refills, interesting.
Vou fazer uma !
