pilot MR metropolitan, pilot MR Metropolitan international, pilot cocoon.

pilot MR metropolitan, pilot MR Metropolitan international, pilot cocoon

There are a lot of confusion between these 3 models, for the sake of comparison, let's just do this

pilot MR Metropolitan international= the one that uses international cartridge (bottom)
pilot MR metropolitan = the one that uses pilot cartridge (middle)
pilot cocoon = the one only sold in japan.(top)

The body doesn't look different...

Yup, no difference.....

The nib is the give away. cocoon has dots instead of lines.

All caps are made in japan....same wording, same font.

 The international version uses an international converter. note that pilot DID NOT make a standard international converter for it. all else looks the same....

The feed for the MR and the Cocoon is the same. the feed for the MR international looks totally different.
