I was looking for a fatter than normal fountain pen and came across Classic Fountain Pens Tea Time Magnum Special Edition (By Bexley). This is a nice fat good looking pen. It comes with what looks like a #6 nib in a 1.3mm stub. I measured the stub and it is actually a 1.2mm two toned stub. I had it adjusted to a wet 8/10 flow. I may have gone a little too wet for some inks. I tried the pen with DeA Aubergine and it was a gusher. I next tried Diamine Ancient Copper and the pen flow just a tad wetter than "just right". I also plan a on using some of the "drier" inks I have. The pen as mentioned has a nice girth 0.57" (14.5mm) at the barrel and 0.46" (11.7mm) at the barrel. The cap is 0.63" (16mm). The pen is 5.5" capped and 5" long uncapped. The pen weighs 25 grams in total. http://allegroarchitects.smugmug.com/Other/Camera-Awesome-Photos/i-nb5fm5S/0/M/CA_07271315230435-M.jpg Some writing with Diamine Ancient Copper. This ink works well with this pen. http://allegroarchitects.smugmug.com/Other/Camera-Awesome-Photos/i-3nXdjW5/0/M/CA_07271315232652-M.jpg I like the color combination of this pen. http://allegroarchitects.smugmug.com/Other/Camera-Awesome-Photos/i-sHsMhtr/0/M/CA_07271315241110-M.jpg Pen capped. http://allegroarchitects.smugmug.com/Other/Camera-Awesome-Photos/i-hsGbML8/0/M/CA_07271315243381-M.jpg Pen uncapped. I don't post my pens so no pics with the pen posted. Sorry. http://allegroarchitects.smugmug.com/Other/Camera-Awesome-Photos/i-4ctTZSV/0/M/CA_07271315250779-M.jpg Very nice 18K two toned nib with a bit of flex.
