Overview

The Pilot Capless Midnight is the 2025 limited edition of the retractable fountain pen, with a deep midnight-blue finish inspired by the quiet atmosphere of the night. A satin guilloché texture adds both visual depth and a tactile pattern to the resin body, while matte black PVD trim keeps the decoration understated. The edition comprises 2,025 fountain pens.

It continues the capless design Pilot introduced in 1963. A push of the button extends the 18k gold nib for writing; a second push retracts it into the barrel, where an internal shutter closes over it. The mechanism brings the convenience of a retractable instrument to a fountain pen without a separate cap.

The cartridge/converter filling system accepts Pilot ink cartridges or a compatible converter for bottled fountain pen ink.

Made in Japan, it measures 141 mm long. The barrel is 12 mm wide, and the pen weighs 30 g.

Questions & Answers

What is the idea behind the Midnight finish?

The 2025 edition takes its theme from the quiet atmosphere of the night. Deep midnight blue, a satin guilloché texture, and matte black accents create a restrained finish with both visual and tactile detail.

How many Midnight fountain pens were made?

The 2025 Midnight edition is limited to 2,025 fountain pens.

How does the Capless work without a separate cap?

Press the button to extend the nib for writing, then press it again to retract it into the barrel. An internal shutter closes over the retracted nib to help protect it from drying out.

Which cartridges and converter fit this Capless?

It accepts Pilot IC-50 ink cartridges or a Pilot CON-40 converter for bottled fountain pen ink.

How should I care for the textured resin exterior?

Clean the textured resin exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.
