Pros

The barrel is a matte, cross-hatched black. These are classy pencils. When one picks it up you knowthat it is an engineering marvel.

The glide of the lead across the paper is equivalent to what i imagine ice skating feels like. The retraction mechanism is also easily managed with your writing hand (one-handed), and spring-loaded. It feels really nice in your hand and writes like yo...  Read More

Pencil has retractable lead pipe and brass clip. Perfect for precision drawing and alignment with other tools. Retractable tip makes it very pocketable.

Only noticeable difference is the retractable tip but it's a nice feature. There is play in the nib, but it is hardly noticeable. People say that there isn’t much of a difference between the 800 and 600. Instructions are distinct & specific.

This is the rotring for those who want a disappearing tip. Every rotring i've ever purchased or used has worked flawlessly. I feel very comfortable in recommending any rotring model.



Cons

It’s almost impressive how worthless of a writing tool this is; a swiss quality watch of unreliability, if that makes any sense.

Quality


This is a great product with excellent build quality.


The tips retracts into the pencil for safe keeping of the lead, the lead feels great and writes fantastic.


Against my belief, the pencil doesn't retracts easily everytime.


Since the body of the pencil is faceted rather than round, it does not roll around, even without the clip.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Overall i like the construction of the pencil but the weight has a very top heavy feel so it might not be for everyone

    Another solid product from rotring


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Probably not unless you collect those pencils and enjoy having a variety


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not that one should not respect fine tools and treat them with care but the rigors of work means i need a writing tool on the go more often than not
