Editorial take
Why we picked it
I've spent a decade trying to look busy in meetings, but this pen has finally automated the process for me.
It's a writing instrument that spends its life trying to escape its base, hovering at a jaunty angle that suggests it has better places to be.
It's essentially a very expensive fidget spinner for people who wear blazers and enjoy making their colleagues slightly uncomfortable with "science."
Detailed verdict
The full review
The Irresistible
- The sheer theatricality of it standing there, unsupported, is enough to make any desk feel like it belongs on the bridge of a Starship.
- The magnetic cap snaps into place with a satisfying "clink" that provides a hit of dopamine usually reserved for winning at pub quizzes.
The Clever Part
- It is engineered to sit at a 23.5-degree angle, mimicking the Earth's axial tilt, which is exactly the kind of over-engineered nonsense we live for.
- The Schmidt ballpoint cartridge means it actually writes like a dream, assuming you can stop spinning it for long enough to sign a cheque.
The Fine Print
- If you have a cluttered desk, you will inevitably knock this over and spend ten minutes crawling under your chair to find a piece of "interstellar" aluminium.
- The magnetic base is a menace to any credit cards or mechanical watches that dare to get too close.
The Reality Check
- The "uncap" ritual is so dramatic that you'll feel like you're launching a nuclear missile just to write a grocery list for milk and bin bags.
