The official Presidential pen. Seventy years of iconic design, heavy gold plated.
Why This Exists
The Cross Classic Century is the pen that defined Cross — and it's been doing so since 1946. Its slim, elegant silhouette is instantly recognizable and has remained virtually unchanged for over 70 years, making it one of the world's most iconic writing instruments. This is the official Presidential pen, chosen for signing legislation and marking the most important moments in life.
This limited edition features a 23-karat heavy gold plated finish over a solid brass barrel, with subtle incised line detailing and polished gold appointments throughout. The twist-action mechanism deploys smoothly, and the precision-engineered tip writes at any angle with Cross's specially formulated ink that flows flawlessly. Balanced, weighted, and built to last a lifetime.
