Parker Urban in Navy Blue with 'M'nib


Mercian

This photo shows the shape and the colour (in English Spring sunshine) of the first Parker Urban that I bought.

It has an 'M' nib on it. All of these Urbans had steel nibs. The nib is a decorated version of the nib that was used on the 'Jotter' and 'Vector' pens of the era. It is a very rigid nib.
 

This pen's colour is called 'Navy Blue', and it is a dark blue that can often look black on photos that were taken badly with cheap equipment (i.e. on my photos).

 

It is an Urban from the first series (i.e. before the 're-modelled' version was launched in 2016).

This one has the production date code 'IIIA' stamped on it, which corresponds to 2012 Q1.

No country of manufacture is stamped on it, but (for what it's worth) the barcode on its box indicates France as country of manufacture.
