In case you haven’t heard of rOtring (we doubt that very much), they’ve been producing ridiculously desirable writing implements out of Germany since the 1920s. They’ve gone through a number of changes and iterations in the last century, but their attention to detail and quality product has never dwindled. The re-launch of their UK and US presence starts here with the unveiling of the 800+ Pencil / Stylus Hybrid. The precision stylus tip is 100% effective at every angle, but has enough space in the middle to reveal a brass pencil mechanism with a simple twist and click. The hexagonal body options include black and silver, and both have 0.5 and 0.7mm options for your pencil. Whether you’re sketching on paper or the iPad, the rOtring 800+ is sure to become an indispensable part of your process.
