The twist action fountain pen, The first fountain pen with a retractable nib and clip.
The LAMY dialog 3 is a revolutionary fountain pen without cap.
Thanks to a fascinating twist mechanism the nib slides elegantly out of the barrel. The clip at the same time retracts into the shell. The pen is now ready to write. When the pen is twisted closed a protective ball valve automatically moves in front of the opening and protects the retracted nib from damage and dirt. The clip can be lifted for use in a pocket or bag. With its unique function and classic minimalist design the LAMY dialog 3 is a special writing instrument in every way.
