I doubt it is the same one. Although I could be wrong. Art Brown pen
shop did tell me that all 'authentic' Rotring pens are 'made in
Germany'. I know that, for example' Mont Blanc Pens has a problem with
counterfeit pens which is well known. A friend of mine just 'bought'
what he thought was a real Mont Blanc pen in the US Virgin Islands. He
paid $100 less than here in NY. He stopped into the Mont Blanc store in
NYC on my suggestion and they told him it was a fake. Way to tell real
from fake Mont Blanc; real has tiny engraved serial number on clip
ring - fakes do not. I think you get what you pay for. Another piece of
info: Sanford, which owns Rotring, told me that most on line only
retailers are not authorized dealers. Particularly WorldPen.com and
others. So be careful and shop wisely
