This is a brand new Cross Platinum Verve ballpoint pen laser engraved by Cross for the winning Team ABN AMRO of the world’s premier ocean race: The Volvo Round The World Ocean Race. 

The Volvo Ocean Race is a yacht race around the world, held every four years. It is considered to be the ultimate sailing adventure. 

Original Price was $200.00++ and was not sold commercially! You can purchase this for much less then an unmarked Platinum Verve Pen. 

Once these are gone, there will be no more! Cross Item # AT0022-3 with special Cross factory Laser engraving, "TEAM ABN AMRO in the Volvo Ocean Race 2005-2006". This is from a small run of pens that were presented to crew members and other important individuals involved in the race. 

The king of metals, 100% element pure platinum, is electrically plated onto the cap and barrel to a uniform thickness of 2 microns. The texture, artfully created by randomly brushing the base metal until a vertical satin wash finish is achieved on both the cap and barrel. Matching platinum plated appointments and a 360-degree, enhances the minimalist, seamless flowing profile of the Verve design. 

Add the unique Volvo Ocean Race significance and you have a rare piece of sailing history that you can use in on a day to day basis if you want to. 
Cross provides a Full Perpetual Warranty Guarantee with the pen. All Cross writing instruments are unquestionably guaranteed against mechanical failure, regardless of age by the manufacturer. The pen was manufactured in the USA with US and France components by the world famous Cross firm. It was designed especially for Team ABN/AMRO by Cross. The pen is new old stock with papers including lifetime warranty information. 

I use one of these pens from my own collection and it compares very favorably with a Sterling Silver Mont Blanc.
