Pilot Custom Heritage 912 Waverly Fountain Pen
The Custom 912 Waverly is Pilot’s answer for writers who refuse to compromise on smoothness. Its up-turned 14 k gold nib glides over paper like a brush, turning quick meeting notes or leisurely journal pages into a moment of calm. Perfect for professionals, students and left-handed users who need a pen that adapts to every angle, every day. Ideal for anyone seeking effortless, consistent writing in a lightweight premium body.
Concept and Design
Waverly’s signature nib rises gently at the tip, keeping full contact with the page and enlarging the sweet spot. The polished black resin barrel, accented with rhodium-plated trim and the sword-shaped clip, creates a refined aesthetic that blends seamlessly into briefcases, planners and creative desks alike. Subtle engraving on the cap band—“Custom Heritage 912 Pilot Japan”—is a quiet nod to its origin.
Functionality and Filling System
Inside, the high-capacity CON-70 pump converter holds roughly one millilitre of ink. A single squeeze fills the reservoir; flushing takes seconds, allowing colour changes without fuss. The grooved plastic feed regulates flow so the pen starts instantly after uncapping, even following long pauses.
Package Contents
Each pen ships in a Pilot gift box that includes the CON-70 converter pre-installed, a starter Pilot/Namiki cartridge, multilingual instructions and the official three-year Pilot warranty card. Everything arrives ready for gifting or immediate use.

Brand History and Philosophy
Since 1918 Pilot has pursued the harmony of form, function and feeling—crafting writing instruments that “vanish in the hand” so ideas flow freely onto paper. From early lacquered makie treasures to today’s precision-engineered gold nibs, every Pilot pen is built in Japan with a relentless focus on reliability and comfort. The Waverly variant continues that legacy by welcoming every writing angle, echoing the company’s belief that tools should adapt to people—never the other way round.
