High-Capacity Piston Filling System

The “Realo” name represents Sailor’s integrated piston filling mechanism, designed to significantly increase ink capacity compared to standard cartridge/converter fountain pens.

Approximate Ink Capacity: 1.5cc

The generous ink reservoir allows for long uninterrupted writing sessions, making the pen ideal for:

• Extensive note-taking

• Calligraphy and expressive broad nib writing
• Use with highly absorbent paper

By reducing the frequency of refills, the Sailor 1911 Realo helps maintain writing flow and concentration without interruption.

The Sailor 1911 Realo Black GT is engineered for balance, durability, and comfort. The lightweight yet robust PMMA resin construction provides a comfortable grip and balanced feel during extended writing sessions.

The gripping section, cap, and barrel are crafted from high-quality PMMA resin, while the elegant gold IP-plated accents enhance the pen’s premium appearance.

An additional advantage is the compatibility of the body with certain existing Sailor nib units sharing the same thread specifications, allowing enthusiasts to pair preferred nibs with this high-capacity piston body.

About Sailor

Sailor pens was established in 1911 in Japan, becoming the first to produce fountain pens in their home country. They have subsequently built a first-class reputation in the manufacture of the highest quality nibs, with all parts made in their own factory in Hiroshima. Their flagship collections are the classic 1911 and boldly designed Professional Gear, all available with a 14k or 21k gold nib. The Sailor name comes from founder Kyugoro Sakata's British sailor friend who introduced him to fountain pens.
