When I got my first real writing job, my then-wife gifted me with a wonderful Sensa pen, gel grip, takes space-pen refills. It's comfortable, attractive, and pretty much indestructible, which turns out to be a good thing because I think Sensa went out of business, so parts might be hard to find. I've carried it to work every day for the last seven years now.

I suppose it's technically a ball-point pen, but it's as far from a 39c bic pen as the AMG SLK F1 pace car is from a clapped-out Ford Pinto.
