To celebrate Accutron’s most recent 60th Anniversary, the brand collaborated with a true ‘American Original,” Esterbrook Pens, once one of the largest pen manufacturers in the United States. Proudly used by U.S. Presidents, Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy when signing legislation, Charles Schulz when creating his famous Peanuts comics, as well as other various Disney artists.
Esterbrook Pens is a company that shares the same vision and passion for innovation as Accutron. A year later, these two brands continue their partnership with a new Accutron by Esterbrook Special Edition pen series. In 1960, Accutron launched and revolutionized the timeackeeping industry with the introduction of the first truly electronic timepiece utilizing a tuning fork for accuracy.
The following year, in 1961, President Kennedy, with a stroke of his Esterbrook pen, wrote the historic speech, later presented before a joint session of Congress, setting the United States on a course to the moon. Thereafter, Accutron technology was used by NASA on dozens of missions. These two forward-thinking brands have come together more than a century after their founding to showcase their rich American heritage and innovative expertise.
Incorporating the brand’s iconic green hue, the new pens feature a tie-dye design of light green and blue colors.
