Thank you for viewing my item from among many others. I am selling this because I already own another one. This is a Platinum Fountain Pen's discontinued ballpoint pen, the Affection Switch, in a genuine cowhide leather model. I purchased this as a spare and have hardly used it, so the condition is good. It's an excellent pen that can be used as a mechanical pencil by replacing the refill with a separately sold mechanical pencil mechanism. This pen is becoming less and less available on the market, so please take this opportunity to get one (^^) The barrel color is blue, and it still writes well.
