The Pico is my latest can’t-leave-home-without-it gadget. It’s a retractable pen from Lamy, those Teutonic mavens of mechanical writing precision. When pressed, the pen extends out one end and the writing point pops out the other end. It’s one of those things you’ll find yourself fiddling with in meetings as you pretend to be interested in the lack of TPS report compliance. The red, blue and black models have a smoth soft touch finish that feels great and the polished chrome model coordinates wonderfully with your 20in spinnin’ rims.
