Built upon the substantial Sheaffer 300 platform, the pen offers a comfortable, balanced feel in hand with a solid construction that gives it a confident writing presence without becoming overly heavy. The broad center profile and gently tapered barrel make it particularly comfortable for extended writing sessions.
The fountain pen measures approximately 5 9/16 inches capped, 6 1/8 inches posted, and weighs 1.60 ounces, giving it a substantial executive-style feel while remaining well balanced during writing use.
Unlike threaded-cap designs, this example features a friction-fit cap that secures firmly to the barrel with a satisfying snap closure, allowing for quick and convenient access while preserving the clean uninterrupted lines of the pen’s modern styling.
The pen utilizes a cartridge/converter filling system, providing compatibility with Sheaffer ink cartridges or bottled fountain pen ink when used with a converter. I have tested this converter with water and works as it should.
Fitted with a Fine stainless steel Sheaffer nib, it measures .58mm when measured with digital calipers. The Fine point pairs particularly well with everyday writing, note taking, and professional use while complementing the pen’s precise modern character. Note, that this fountain pen has never been inked.
The polished chrome trim contrasts beautifully against the rich Ferrari red lacquer, further enhancing the pen’s visual appeal and premium presentation. As part of the officially licensed Ferrari writing instrument collection, the pen proudly showcases both the Scuderia Ferrari Shield and Sheaffer’s iconic White Dot symbol—long recognized as a hallmark of quality and craftsmanship within the writing instrument world.
