Monteverde Regatta Explorers Fountain Pen - Walnut (Limited Edition)
Crafted as the next in line and representing one of Monteverde USA®’s most iconic collections, the Limited Edition Regatta Explorers™ is a new line that commemorates the age of discovery and exploration. To the ships that sailed where none had gone before, and to their maritime explorers whom had the spirit of adventure and dared to dive into the unknown. Discover this latest ‘fleet’ of pens, with a distinct wood finish paired with the classic Regatta™ carbon fiber bands.
While influenced by the ships of old, this collection brings a modern twist. Named after the fine sport of boat racing, the Regatta™ collection displays the line’s notable carbon fiber aesthetic between each band of natural wood and features a magnetic closure for capping and posting on every fountain pen.
This Limited Edition Regatta Explorers™ collection displays a natural walnut wood finish, with dark wood grain throughout each segment and is beautifully paired with shiny gunmetal trim, bands, and long sweeping clip. A metal coin sits atop each pen depicting the ever-famous Monteverde® mountains.
From Marco Polo’s discoveries to Magellan's quest across the seas, the names of these great explorers and their contributions have left their permanent mark on history. Get your Limited Edition Regatta Explorers™ and start your journey today!

This fountain pen is offered with your choice of a reliable, smooth-writing German made JoWo #6 black steel nib in extra-fine, fine, medium, broad, 1.1mm stub or the new JoWo Omniflex flexible steel nib for variation in line width. With six nib options, you are sure to find a selection to fit your handwriting style.
Our note about the JoWo Omniflex nib: This flex nib will allow you to experience more bounce and softness than writing with conventional nibs. You can achieve some line variation with a little additional downward pressure, to a point. We recommend flexing the nib to about twice the line width that you would see without using any pressure. Please take care to avoid pressing too hard on the nib, as over-flexing could prevent the tines from returning fully to their original position and decrease or stop your ink flow.
