Jr. Retro Rollerball Pen Kits
Jr. Retro Rollerball Pen Kits
Turn a pen with genuine vintage character — the Jr. Retro Rollerball Pen Kit by Dayacom brings a distinctive mid-century silhouette to the Jr family with its flared center band, black chrome accents, and domed finial. These design details give the Retro a profile that stands apart from every other Jr kit in the lineup — instantly recognizable, and consistently eye-catching on a display table.
Available in 10KT Gold, Chrome, and Gun Metal, the Retro covers the full spectrum from warm luxury to clean modern, and the black chrome accent details read well across all three finishes. Built on the Jr Gent II platform with the familiar 10.5mm and 12.5mm tooling, the postable Retro is easy to set up alongside other Dayacom Jr kits. A Schmidt 888 rollerball refill is included, and an optional fountain section is available for a matched pair.

Why Turners Love This Kit
The flared center band and domed finial give the Retro a silhouette that buyers recognize as distinctly different — it's the pen on the table that makes people ask "what is that one?" before they've read the tag
Black chrome accents read beautifully against all three finishes — Gold, Chrome, and Gun Metal — meaning every variant in the display has that same cohesive retro detail without looking repetitive
The 10KT Gold option is genuinely rare at this price point — a warm, rich plating that appeals to buyers who've passed over chrome and gunmetal a hundred times and want something they haven't seen before
Vintage aesthetic pairs exceptionally well with classic wood blanks — olive wood, walnut, or a figured maple in Gun Metal finish creates a combination that feels like it belongs in a study, not on a craft fair table
