MoonFighter : Crazy or Cool?



I mentioned Romain Jerome's Space Invaders watch earlier this year. Now, the brand that believes that there are never too many things that you can put bits of the moon into has come up with the “MoonFighter” pen range.


A pen or an expensive toy (of sorts) that happens to have a dual function as a pen?  Fun or utterly over the top ridiculous? You draw your own conclusions. Whatever you think, there will never be any doubt that this is a Romain Jerome production.

With moon dust in the cockpit, it comes in a three variants: Heavy Metal, Black Metal and Vintage. Each is limited to an edition of 888, adorned with 48 hand-applied rivets and ‘docks’ in a carbon-finished docking station. The fountain pen's nib is titanium.

Prices start at 1,990 Swiss Francs.
