Some pens turn handwriting into something more. The Pilot Custom 743 Falcon is one of them. Equipped with a unique and responsive nib, it brings life to every line with fluid and elegant strokes. It is especially appreciated by those who enjoy a writing experience full of movement and subtle flair.

Perfect for writers who seek precision and a slightly distinctive feel, without needing to apply pressure to the page.

Design and Concept

The Pilot Custom 743 features a glossy black resin body with gold trim, a refined and timeless combination. Its medium-large format ensures comfort and balance, even during long writing sessions. The Falcon nib (FA), crafted in 14K gold and size 15, is one of Pilot’s most distinctive nibs. Designed to support fluid, agile writing, it offers a soft touch on the page and a line with personality. While not a flex nib in the traditional sense, it adds a slight variation and responsiveness that many users appreciate.

Filling System

This fountain pen uses Pilot’s dual filling system, compatible with both cartridges and converters. It comes with a high-capacity CON-70 converter pre-installed, allowing for longer writing sessions without frequent refilling.

Included in the box
