Cross Mens Gentlemans At008214 Century Satin Chrome Ballpoint Slimline Gift Pen

Excellent product - classy

Why did you choose this product over others?: Always wanted a replacement for the one I lost which was given to my late wife

This pen, like all Cross pens, writes beautifully. I ended up returning this one and buying a different model. I was buying it as a gift and I felt the black plastic end had a slightly sharp edge on it and also made it not feel like such a quality item. Otherwise it was perfect. I ended up buying the white pearlescent model instead which has a metal end piece.

This is a nice sleek and stylish pen. I'm not a fan of big chunky pens so this was a good alternative to them. It writes well and fits snuggly in the hand. Not cheap though!

Bought my eldest daughter the gold cross pen now bought my youngest a silver cross i think the presentation box and quality and price is amazing and a lovely keep sake forever,very happy.

It really is, especially for the price. It's beautiful, sleek, and sits well in the hand. The grip texture works almost flawlessly (perspiring hands tend to slip on anything, though). The nib comes out smoothly, and writes very well for a ballpoint - no smudging, for instance. I've had one of these for almost several years now, and it still works, despite being left largely untouched next to a notebook full of old stories and ideas. It worked fine throughout my GCSEs and A Levels, and the ink has never frozen/hardened up, regardless of the aforementioned neglect. The only downside is that those with larger hands might have some trouble gripping it, and even those who don't may experience higher levels of cramp than normal. Other than that, there's really nothing wrong with this, at least from my experience.

I've always had a thing for pens - ever since I got a set of Parker pens for my 11th birthday. This Cross is just beautiful! It writes smoothly and evenly with no scratching etc. on the paper. The machining on the barrel is clean & sharply done - and works superbly as a "grip" area on what is otherwise a slim, sleek piece of carefully crafted metal ............ yes, I'm an engineer, I work for an aerospace/defence CNC machining company and I'm the only person I know who would get "that" worked up about a pen!! I already own a "wide barrel" Cross ballpoint and this one makes a perfect partner. In my opinion, this pen is worth every single penny!

Well designed and attractive writing instrument.

Stylo fin, élégant, et surtout précis, j'entends par la que là mine ne bouge pas dans le corps du stylo, ce qui rend l'utilisation du stylo très agréable.

Writes smoothly

Quando frequentavo la scuola, ne avevo una con l’indicazione del paese di fabbricazione: Made in USA.

Poco que comentar, la calidad Cross insuperable, siempre he utilizado bolígrafos y lapiceros Cross. Sobre todo, varios modelos de bolígrafos. Aunque también he usado Parker. Pero me siento más comodo con Cross. Es más ahora regresé al modelo clásico de Cross que empecé a utilizar hace muchos años. Amazon prefecto

I bought this item to replace my old Cross pen that was stolen. There is nothing i don't like about this pen. It is smooth, well weighted, and the finish is perfect. Although i am used to a heavier pen (writing instrument), i am getting used to the lighter weight, and using it is a joy. Although i haven't changed the cartridge, i don't expect any issues as thud id a quality instrument well worth purchasing. Firmly recommended.
