By combining consumers' favorite features of each of the four current writing modes; the classic beauty of the fountain pen, the smoothness and precision of the rollerball, the ease and longevity of the ball point pen and the smudge-free, fluid experience of the porous point, researchers have developed the cutting edge 5th Technology and created an innovative arsenal of pens dubbed the Parker Ingenuity Collection; the benefits of which include:

• A smart glide tip that immediately adjusts to your personal writing style
• Ink designed to produce a vivid, clear script and prevent hand-smudging
• A simple, clean refill process with a tip designed to maximize cap-off time and eliminate ink leaks induced by pressure, impact and temperature

The new writing system from Parker Pens is a technological breakthrough and a must-have example of contemporary accessories. The Parker Ingenuity Collection has two categories, Classic and Daring, both available in two sizes and in six different finishes for a total of twelve options to suit any personal style. The daring collection draws from the latest trends in the watch, jewelry and cosmetic industries while the classic collection continues the tradition of timeless elegance.

Jean-Charles HITA, Global President of the Parker brand says, "Parker Pens has been changing people's lives through its innovations in the fine writing category for more than 120 years. Now we are doing it again. Combining style with technology, Parker offers a solution for those who have not yet entered the world of fine writing pens, but once tried; they will definitely become fans forever!"

From the innovative 5th Technology exclusive to the elegant Parker Ingenuity Collection emerges a form of pen that combines modern thinking with fine design. The emerging generation won't have to choose between fashion and functionality – now they can have both.

The Parker Ingenuity Collections range from $160 -$190 and are available at fine pen shops and specialty retailers nationwide.
