Description
Retro51 Tornado™ Tribute 250 Rollerball Pen
With this new edition featuring the iconic colors of the American flag, Retro51®, renowned manufacturer of its Tornado® rollerballs, offers us a unique and refined interpretation of the "Stars and Stripes." This model features an aged finish, where the patinated hues blend perfectly with the oxidized brass metal trim, giving the pen a retro yet timeless charm.
On the guilloché wheel, the inscription "ESTd USA 1776" recalls the date of the United States Declaration of Independence, proclaimed on July 4, 1776. The American flag, officially adopted a year later, on June 14, 1777, by the Second Continental Congress, was composed of 13 alternating red and white stripes, as well as 13 white stars on a blue background, symbolizing the 13 original colonies. In 2026, the United States will celebrate its 250th anniversary, an occasion that inspired the creation of this commemorative rollerball.
The Tornado® by RETRO51® is much more than just a rollerball pen: it's an exceptional object, combining aesthetics, innovation, and quality. Its key features, acclaimed by users, make it a unique writing instrument:
