The Parker Jotter | The Pen In Every Movie

[@hosseinvanaki9061]

My father gave me a Parker pen 45 years ago and still works smoothly.

[@dimplepreet818]

Is it ballpoint pen ? If so does it ever stop of ink ? Bro please tell ❤, I am thinking of buying a Parker pen ❤

[@NitishDiwakar]

Fountain pen?

[@steveseleucid3607]

It's simply a classic, but perhaps the best thing about it is that it's affordable and everywhere. Picked one up from my local supermarket last month for £5. Special mention for the Jotter XL which addresses the main criticism that the Jotter is too small for long writing sessions. Also, use the gel refills for a pen that can meet all your writing needs.

[@DayspringPens]

Steve you are on point with everything here! What a price on that Jotter! We especially recommend the Jotter for quick notes and taking it on the go because of its size.

[@TheZiggyBomb]

I never cared about pen content before but this is super cool.

[@DayspringPens]

We know that not everyone are pen nerds like us but we thought it was cool to see how mainstream the Jotter is!

[@thenonexistinghero]

It's always a good idea to have a nice looking pen & notebook for job interviews and the like. It's not that the absence of them will make you look bad, but moreso that he presence of them will make you look good. It doesn't have to be a Parker of course, any nice looking metal pen will do. You don't really have to spend all that much, about $10-$20. I think that's worth it, at least (and usually they also have a slightly better writing experience than the cheap pens, but that might depend on preference).

[@tspableras1731]

Lovely pen. It's my EDC for High School and my Music School in Spain. I've seen them several times in the American show "The Mentalist" and in the British "Line of Duty". And in "Danger close: The Battle of Long Tan" the main character writes notes with a plastic Jotter. They are so well-designed, affordable, classy... They are just a global icon. I have four: two from the sixties made in the USA, which I keep at home, and two from France, which I use all the time.

[@christiannakamura1187]

First discovered the Jotter when I was living in the French Caribbean and never went back. I prefer the 0.5 point gel cartridges. Smoothest ever. I also look for them in every movie and show I watch.

[@srijanadhikary3008]

I am also have same I from India and its cost is 60$

[@ferdinanddaguinsin4970]

Parker pens are just great - the sonnet is the best fountain pen that I ever used . It is so underrated in the pen community. For me , it’s the best

[@DayspringPens]

We love Parker Pens too! We do not currently carry the Sonnet however we love the Sonnet Fountain pen! You can always trust Parker for a quality writing instrument.

[@GarrettWinn43]

Had no idea this pen was in so many movies!!

[@DayspringPens]

The Jotter is everywhere!

[@capnsalty0200]

I have used the Jotter for year, I used to and still do call it a T Ball Jotter. I have two right now. Love it.

[@ronaldlee7566]

This is also my most favorite pen to carry and write due to flexibility, reliability, and effectivity🖊. Thanks Sir Michael for uploading my favorite pen of all time through silver screen. Stay safe Sir🙏

[@DayspringPens]

We love the Jotter too! Glad you liked the video.

[@emelphick4742]

It’s also in the movie “Prisoners” (2013) with Hugh Jackman & Jake Gyllenhaal (Jake’s a police detective that uses a standard black & chrome Jotter to take down notes). 📖✍🏼

[@DayspringPens]

Nice! The Jotter is everywhere!

[@hugomota3696]

I just watched the movie "The Lincoln Lawyer " and I think Matthew McConaughey character uses a Jotter Goldeneye in the first scenes. Also, the President of Portugal signed the Book of Honour of the Belgium Royal Palace with a Jotter Goldeneye too, it was quite visible in detail on a tv news report

[@theheathen100]

My love for pens started with fountain pens. Recently, I just bought the Jotter in matte black and a Parker LS. I'm glad I bought both, but I still love my Duofolds. Parker makes great pens.

[@DayspringPens]

Parker makes premium products!

[@mustafacrown9112]

Yes i do like Parker jotter..i recently bought two at the same time..and it's great to have those.. more than one

[@Drod6969]

Parker jotter pencil is the smoothest mechanical pencil lead I’ve ever felt! buttery and with bold application!

[@acmramon]

I have around 200 Parker Jotter and even now i still buy them sometimes when i find a good deal on ebay. Is the only pen i use. Best pen

[@Christian_from_Copenhagen]

Now I need a montage of every movie shot of a Parker pen, I've only seen it in GoldenEye 😄

[@DayspringPens]

It is crazy how often they do show up. You will find them scattered through movies and television set in the 70s, 80s and 90s because of their design. It is a fun game for us pen nerds 😂

[@Titanic1997Fan]

My dad gave me one for school, love it! it writes so smooth!

[@darrencen6934]

I own 2 Parker Jotter , a vintage from 1991 ( retired from use ) and my current one stainless steel GT ❤️

[@DayspringPens]

You really can't beat a jotter! What kind of refill do you keep in them? Our staff loves the gel refill.

[@darrencen6934]

Just use the quinkflow that comes with the pen , I'm planning on getting the pr4 refills soon

[@dianestephenson4662]

I just saw it in Daisy and the Six - I was born in 1956 and when I was in school it was a treat my mother would let me buy as a school supply. It was sold in the grocery store back when I was in school in the late 60’s,early 70’s. Still have and use them today. Brings back fond memories.

[@claussteiner5857]

Parker Jotter, Sheaffer Sentinel e Zebra F701, all steel and ballpoints. The perfect trio

[@mustafacrown9112]

Yes i do like Parker jotter..and going to get more ..i already have the Parker classic CT ball point pen stainless steel slim.. great looking and only to recommend to use with gel quick flow refill ..in jotter and also in classic CT pen

[@mikebeacom4883]

My dad’s “best pen” was a jotter. It became my favorite, too

[@foxstevens-clay363]

Really good production quality for the amount of subs, goddamn

[@DayspringPens]

Thanks fox stevens-clay... tell all your friends 😂

[@buddy-wp6us]

I love these pens. I have a collection of them because all my friends see them and want them, so I send them home with one😂 I much prefer the fine point ink insert to the gel.

[@RobertHowe-zv7gs]

I have had one since 1976 ; love it !❤😊

[@jordanquinley2471]

In the TV series Endeavour, Morse uses a black plastic Jotter all the time.

[@DayspringPens]

Good call! We tried to find it online and the first thing we discovered was a GIF of Morse thinking and fidgeting with his black Jotter!

[@ajaymanoj3527]

I had seen all those movies and yet didn't notice that it was a Parker

[@DayspringPens]

We were surprised too! It shows just how good of a pen it is!

[@Aviator305]

I just saw the Gold Jotter in the Netflix series The Watcher episode 5

[@jazzyjaytee9961]

I got a new one last week ("made in France") for £7 or so, and today I found my old one from the mid-80's ("made in USA"). Comparing the two, side by side, there are only very, very subtle changes on the arrowhead clip's design, and the later clicky mechanism sounds a bit more snappy. Threads on the barrels haven't been changed, apparently; as they are fully interchangeable. Most importantly, you can still get Parker refills today, should you need a new one! There are so many ball pens from other manufacturers out there with proprietary refills which have been discontinued.

[@stevenwymor1398]

Dude, you forgot to mention the gel ink refills. That’s the pen that sold it for me.

[@hukes]

In the sphere of archetypes, the Jotter is THE pen.

[@SlackingSince1969]

I bought a standard size Stainless Steel Jotter last weekend. The XL was just a bit too much pen for my liking. I also bought the .5mm black Quinkflow -> or whatever it's called...lol -> at the same time to replace the .7mm blue cartridge the pen came with. I don't like blue ink and the marginally thinner writing .5mm black is more my speed. Here in Toronto Canada at Staples it cost me $30 for both including taxes. A bit dear but glad I sprung for it. Now I have to justify the $90 plus taxes and shipping to get myself a Smythson Panama Notebook that I really, really don't need.🤔 Father's Day present!!!🏁🍾

[@DayspringPens]

It is amazing how different of a writing experience it is between the normal Jotter and the XL. Thanks for the comment!

[@davidsteck413]

A great pen at almost any price! Smooth writing and looks good and I love the iconic click !

[@DayspringPens]

Totally agree!

[@acacia934]

It's a super awesome reliable pen. Back when I was in college and I would try a bunch of different ballpoint pens that readily failed me, especially during critical times in class and or testing. The Parker Jotter was always reliable and true. It cannot be overstated enough that the consistent ink refills are the hidden success behind the sleek Parker Jotter design.

[@DayspringPens]

Couldn't agree more!

[@victornijmeijer9372]

I can't stop "clicking"!!!!😅

[@lisam5576]

Where in Breakfast Club? Brian's pen is probably best known and it's a Lamy. Stranger Than Fiction is one I didn't see on the list. Awesome film and features a jotter quite a few times.

[@DayspringPens]

We aren't quite sure where the Jotter appears Lisa. We found it mentioned a few times in our research. Sounds like we might need a movie day here at the office.... That Lamy is a great pen; we have featured it in a few blogs. We might have to add Stranger Than Fiction to our list! Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the comment. We only talked about the ballpoint because it is what appears in most of these movies.

What's special about this pen is the click mechanism.

[@beoriginal6992]

Guys I recently bought a jotter and when I click it sometimes the Button kind of snaps down on the refill , and then it clicks, it feels like it is holding onto something on the inside but then it “slides” in the corect position. Does anyone know How to fix this or What causes it?

[@victornijmeijer9372]

Use WD-40, a little spray?

[@shmutube]

Have been using a Jotter, like my Dad pretty much always did, for the last 20+yrs... Went and bought a 10pk ~12yrs ago just to make sure I had plenty of "back-ups" if I lose any...

I had one of these pens in my younger years. I wasn’t a huge fan and the clicking felt too tinny.

I have one myself, however, performancewise it still sucks next to a dirt cheap BIC Cristal.

And the guy in Goldeneye was invincible as long as he had that pen. He didn't die til after he lost it. (Should I say "spoiler"? lol sorry)

[@YourAashique]

Is it Ball pen?

[@DayspringPens]

It depends on which model you buy. Some of the Jotters are sold with ballpoint while others are sold with gel. You can always buy a refill of whichever you like.

[@kevalmain5730]

Don’t know why but I’ve never liked the jotter refills.

[@cdchurcher]

I have a Parker Jotter in stainless steel just like yourts and I love it, what I don't love is your generic commercial background music, horrible and too high in the mix, distracting and not complementary to your calm and earnest presentational style.

[@husnudegirmenci2107]

Over the years, the pen has become very light and lost its former quality.

[@johnsullivan3444]

A parker jotter is a pen for children. It's too small and slim for adult hands. It's just been marketed well. There are loads of better pens and brands out there.

[@michaelcase8574]

Probably because they provided them for free.LOL

Show the pen while you're talking, not your face as much. This was so annoying.
