Cross have introduced the world's first trackable ballpoint pen - the Peerless TrackR. Thanks to a custom-made internal tracking device embedded in the barrel of the pen, it can easily be located using a simple smartphone app.
The TrackR app - compatible with iOS8 and up, and Android 4.4 and later - tracks the pen's last seen location with a date and time stamp. If the pen is separated from you, your phone can beep to remind you to grab your pen. It works the other way round too: if you lose your phone, a quick tap of the pen's button will make your phone beep so you can find it - no need to ask someone else to ring your phone when you lose it. Just don't lose both your phone and your TrackR pen!
It also gives you access to crowd-sourced location capabilities: when a TrackR app user within the network passes by your lost pen, its location is tracked and communicated via Bluetooth. This triggers a confidential alert on your phone, with the last known location on a map.
Such a smart pen needs a smart appearance too, and the Cross Peerless is an perfect choice. This is the Carbon Black finish, but it's also available in Quartz Blue, with both versions fitted with a Cross Micro Ballpoint refill in black. It is presented in a luxury gift box complete with a velvet pen pouch, spare refill adapter, special instructional booklet and app information and two CR1220 batteries, which will give up to a year's life under normal use.
Dimensions: length 145mm; width 13.7mm at the thickest point; weight 42g. As with all Cross pens, the actual pen is guaranteed for life.
