파커 인제뉴어티 레드 드래곤 한정판 (2012, 8000개)
Now is the perfect moment to introduce this pen.
Have you heard of Chinese zodiac?
In East Asia countries, including Korea, there is a concept of Chinese zodiac - for every 12 years, each year represents one of 12 animals.
The 12 animals are mouse, cow, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, and pig.
The comming year, 2024, is the year of dragon.
This pen was made in 2012, which was also the year of dragon.
The case is red color with two gold dragons.
Chinese culture likes red colors, and I guess it is why the red color was chosen for the case and the pen.
The pen is red color, tinged with some gold colors.
There is a serial number at the bottom of the pen.
This was made in 8000 pieces.
Parker's modern arrow symbol at the top.
Parker's arrow shaped clip with gold color.
The embossing patterns are at the bottom of the cap.
The gold color dragon.
Eastern dragons and Western dragons have different appearance.
Eastern dragons have mustache, many legs, and have no wings.
Dragons tend to be worshiped in Eastern cultures, while they are considered to be evil in Western cultures.
Therefore, gold dragon with red background must be the best choice that couldn't be better!
The nib looks very strange.
Parker call this 5th technology - it feels like the name for new generation of writing technology.
It's not like other types of pens - it is neither fountain pen nor rollerball pen.
Parker claims that this will provide a smooth, tailored writing experience.
The gold metal grip also has embossing patterns.
A refill for 5th technology and warranty cards.
