With its sleek, streamlined silhouette, the Diplomat Aero is one of the most recognisable modern German pens, and the Pure Black RT fountain pen is its most understated version. A black aluminium body meets dark ruthenium trim for a stealthy, all-black look that feels sharp and contemporary.
Inspired by flight
The Aero's rounded, tapering shape draws on the look of early airships, and its body is made from aluminium, a material associated with aviation. The result is a pen that looks engineered rather than decorated.
Writing with it
The Aero fountain pen is 140mm long capped and 160mm posted, and weighs 30g (11g cap, 19g barrel). It uses a snap cap, which is quick to open during meetings and clicks securely back into place.
Nib options
Choose a steel nib in Extra Fine, Fine, Medium or Broad. Fine and Medium are the most popular for everyday writing.
Filling
A cartridge and a converter are both included, so you can start writing straight away and switch to bottled ink whenever you like.
Why Pure Black?
All-black pens have a quiet confidence. Paired with ruthenium, this Aero looks professional in the boardroom and stylish on a design desk. It's also a great gift for men and minimalists.
