Rolex pen refill

How to open
Hi, I have the same Rolex pen in first picture.
My issue/? Is can’t seem to access the actual refill. Can pull top off but then everything seems glued and inaccessible
Thanks if anyone knows.
Just don’t want to go pulling or twisting if unsure

The pen should unscrew in two places. One, between the black plastic tubular cover fitting and the metal guide tube, and between the metal guide tube and the green barrel. However, these pens are sometimes "glued" where the green barrel meets the guide tube.

I would try using a blow dryer on low heat to cause some expansion of the parts where the black fitting meets the metal tube, letting it cool a bit, and then try unscrewing it from there. Be careful. These pens are not robust from a materials perspective.

Good luck!

Cheers Richard, yes got it.
Just didn’t want to force it, now with your advice was a little firmer and it unscrewed as you described, thanks for your help. Carl
