Platinum 100th Anniversay Century "The Prime" Silver Limited Edition

Created to celebrate Platinum Pen’s 100th anniversary in 2019, the Century “The Prime” Limited Edition pays tribute to one of the brand’s most important historical models: the 1967 “Platinum Platinum,” recognized as the first fountain pen to feature a platinum nib. For this commemorative edition, Platinum reinterpreted that classic design through the lens of its modern #3776 Century platform, combining traditional Japanese precision with a refined, architectural presence.

The pen features a beautifully engraved lattice-check pattern across the body, creating a subtle contrast of texture, depth, and light. The design is elegant but restrained — a fitting expression of Platinum’s understated approach to luxury. Depending on the version, “The Prime” was produced in either a solid silver limited edition or an extremely rare solid platinum limited edition. The solid silver version was limited to 2,000 pieces worldwide, while the platinum-bodied edition was limited to only 100 pieces worldwide.

Equipped with Platinum’s celebrated #3776 Century nib and Slip & Seal mechanism, “The Prime” offers the writing reliability and smoothness collectors expect from the brand, while its commemorative design gives it a distinctive place in Platinum’s modern history. The special anniversary nib is engraved with Platinum’s 100th anniversary emblem, adding a final detail that marks this pen as a true milestone piece.

Sophisticated, collectible, and historically meaningful, the Platinum Century “The Prime” is an excellent choice for collectors of Japanese writing instruments, Platinum enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a refined limited edition with both visual presence and brand significance.
