The Mark One: Apollo 11 Edition pen was designed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. The writing utensil is made from stainless steel for a well-balanced feel and also boasts a PVD coating option for durability and style. The body of the pen has a subtle engravement of the "command service module docked with the lunar module, based loosely on the line drawings from the Apollo 11 flight plan."
The pressurized ballpoint refills of the Mark One: Apollo 11 Edition uses the iconic 'Fisher Space Pen' refill that allows the pen to write underwater, upside down, and even in zero gravity. This intriguing pen has a minimal aesthetic and is ideal for pen and moon landing enthusiasts alike.
