When comedian Chris Rock hosts this year's MTV Video Music Awards (Thursday, September 9), he may have a JORG HYSEK pen in his pocket. MTV organizers have chosen the popular pen for inclusion in the gift baskets for the event's presenters and performers, including Ricky Martin, Lauryn Hill, The Backstreet Boys, Dr. Dre, Janet Jackson and Jennifer Lopez.
"We and the celebrities at our recent Movie Awards absolutely loved these pens because they are truly sleek, sexy and unique! We're thrilled that Jorg Hysek is once again providing MTV with these dazzling pens for our gift baskets!'' said Hillary Lammens, MTV Awards Events Manager.
This unique pen series designed by Jorg Hysek, the man responsible for the creation of best-selling watches such as the TAG Heuer Kirium, Tiffany Streamerica and Breguet Marine, and this fall launching the first watch designs to carry his own brand name, is winning accolades in a number of arenas. In addition to being selected as celebrity gifts for this year's MTV Movie and Video Music Awards shows, the line has also won the 1999 Readers Choice Award sponsored by Pen World Magazine.
The trademark pens are noted for the absence of a clip on the instrument itself, giving the pen a sleeker look and smoother writing style. The specially-designed, leather hand-stitched holder sports the traditional pen clip and serves as the perfect accessory to what has become one of the most popular and prestigious pens today. MTV gift baskets will include Hysek ballpoints in either silver or black lacquer finishes, accompanied by leather holders in a variety of fashion colors.
The Jorg Hysek line includes roller ball, ballpoint, fountain and dipping pens as well as mechanical pencils. These elegant writing instruments are available in silver, black lacquer, carbon fiber or rose gold finishes.
Diamonds and sapphires are also used as embellishments on select Hysek pens.
