Made to last.
Have been carrying one of these for over 50 years. The washing machine has claimed a few of them. Only pen I will carry. Please don’t ask to borrow it because you might not get it .

Not so Good
When the pen is dropped somehow the inside mechanism breaks and the last one I sent back to Parker was never returned... I like it except when it breaks.

Parker Jotter Pen
This new version of the Parker Pen is not as nice as the previous ones. First, it looks cheaper and second, the ink started smudging soon after purchase. Still a decent pen but not as good as it used to be.

Nice Pen
I had read a raving review of the Parker Jotter, extolling its superiority as one of the first (1954!) reasonably priced steps up from generic disposable pens. There were no try-it models in the store, but I stepped up, selected a medium point (I prefer wide, but none were available), paid the nearly $20.00, and took it home. It does write quite smoothly, doesn't skip...

NOT WORTH THE PRICE
Overpriced and more cheaply made than in the past. Might be worth it at 1/2 the price.

My Favorites
I love these pens so much!
I have used them for years, and think nothing compares.
Slender, smooth, comfortable writing… in an impressive, serious writing instrument.

My high school favorite
I have used a Parker "Jotter" ballpoint since middle school in the 1950's and have never regretted it. I keep my Parker in my chest pocket and am never without it. And I know that Parker refills will always be available for this everyday wonder.

Parker Pens are a Timeless Classic
I grew up coveting fine writing instruments like Parker Pens. They write smooth and last long.

Best inexpensive professional pen
You can't go wrong with a Parker Jotter. I usually keep their blue gel refill cartridges because they suit my preferences.

4 Star - I purchased two and one is good the second stinks.
This purchase works well and is comfortable. The second Parker has a Gel cartridge and it is terrible. It will probably be fine when I buy a new cartridge and toss the GEL cartridge out.

Meh
I wanted to be impressed with this pen. I had Parker pens before and they were smooth writing and good quality. This one was smaller than expected and did not write smooth at all.

Ink Issues
Is it my imagination or does the ink dry up after just a few months? Refills seem to be hard to keep going. The pens are nice looking and sturdy and worth the investment, but I’m having second thoughts about them due to the refills.

Solid, reliable, comfortable, a pleasure to write with
I used to use Parker T-Ball Jotters in school, but at some point started using felt tips, gel pens, free pens--really anything that was at hand. This has been true for about 40 years now. The other day I grabbed a pen that had been in my mother's things and it was a PTBJ, and OMG! what a pleasure it was to use. Ink flows smoothly, it's comfortable in the hand--it ju...

Broke on first use.
I used to love these pens many years ago. They are now much cheaper made and definitely not the same quality as in the past. I used the pen once and then it would not retract. Brought it back the same day1

Mixed impressions
This pen is somewhat odd. It has a nice masculine look to it, but it is small, more suited for the average feminin hand. Not as comfortable to write with for me, since my hands are on the larger side.
