Pilot Vanishing Point Fountain Pen - Link Midnight 2025 LE (2026-0930-19)

The Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen in Link Midnight (2025 Limited Edition) has a unique design – the 18k gold nib retracts! This ensures the pen is ready at the push of a button. The moment you are ready to write, so is the Vanishing Point. Once the writing is done, an ingeniously designed door closes over the retracted nib to prevent the ink from drying out.

The Link Midnight Vanishing Point fountain pen features matte blue lacquer over a metal body with matte finish black-plated trim and a black-plated 18k gold Medium point nib. The clip is designed to hold the nib in an upward position when the pen is not in use which prevents the pen from accidentally opening when clipped to a shirt pocket.

Previously owned, appears to be in uninked condition with original box, outer sleeve, clip tag, all paperwork, converter, cartridge and cartridge cap.

The Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen is packaged with a proprietary piston converter, Pilot cartridges and a cartridge cap.

Please note that Japanese nib sizes tend to run on the finer side, so your line with will be thinner than with a western nib.

Other Pilot Vanishing Point replacement nib units are available, and come in 3 plating options and several nib sizes, and additional Pilot ink cartridges can be purchased as well.
