A pen that lives up to its name
The Viper is one of Diplomat's most striking designs. Every surface of the silver body is engraved with a scale-like guilloche pattern that catches the light from every angle and gives your fingers a subtle texture to hold. It looks sharp on a desk and even sharper in a meeting.
The magnetic cap
Instead of a click or screw, the Viper's cap is held by magnets. It slides on with a satisfying, soft close and comes off with an easy pull, which makes it quick to use for signatures and short notes.
Why choose a rollerball?
- Liquid ink for a smooth, fountain-pen-like glide with no pressure
- Bold, consistent lines, ideal for signing documents
- Low maintenance: simply replace the refill
Weight and balance
At about 30g and 140mm long, the Viper has a confident, substantial feel without being heavy. The aluminium body keeps it comfortable for longer writing sessions.
