Pilot Custom 742 Coarse Fountain Pen

In a world where precision is the rule, sometimes a bold stroke becomes a statement of personality. The Pilot Custom 742 Coarse is designed for those who enjoy fluid, expressive, and generous writing—without sacrificing elegance or control.

Ideal for those who appreciate bold calligraphy, distinctive signatures, or expressive artistic writing.

Concept and Design

The Pilot Custom 742 is a high-end fountain pen with a classic, refined design. Its glossy black resin body conveys professionalism and sophistication, while the gold-plated accents strike the perfect balance between tradition and style. With a medium-large body size, it offers a secure and comfortable grip for long writing sessions.

Functionality and Filling System

This model features Pilot’s dual filling system, compatible with both cartridges and converters. While it can be used with the CON-40, at Inktraveler we recommend the CON-70 for its larger ink capacity, especially convenient for a nib as generous as the Coarse.

Package Contents

Includes the Pilot Custom 742 Coarse fountain pen, a pre-installed CON-70 converter, the official Pilot presentation box, and a special gift from Inktraveler selected to enhance your writing experience.

Brand History and Philosophy

Since 1918, Pilot has represented Japanese excellence in writing instruments. The Custom series was created to provide options for every writing style, featuring one of the most extensive nib ranges in the world. The Custom 742 strikes the perfect balance between size, function, and comfort. Its Coarse nib stands out for its broad, generous stroke and smooth feel. This particular model is rarely seen outside of Japan and is a long-standing favorite among nib artisans for its abundant iridium, making it an ideal base for customizations and advanced grinds.

“When your stroke is as important as your words, choose without compromise.”
