Hello all, I recently received my Pilot Seirei-Nuri also called the dragonfly. I love this pen so much I want to share it with yall The Pen Comes in a neat plush box together with papers, a cartridge, an inkwell and a push-converter. http://i.imgur.com/MH7Ax3G.jpg And here it is! If you wonder how this dragonfly effect is made there is a video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9d3cnKM0zc&t=55s http://i.imgur.com/YhFz9xr.jpg The Urushi Lacquer gives it a beautiful, glossy look. The pen is heavier than you would think but it´s perfectly balanced. http://i.imgur.com/yRBgH1a.jpg The nib is 14k and very smooth. I chose M and its precisely the same size as an MB146 F nib. http://i.imgur.com/hUTBpHO.jpg The pattern never fails to amaze me http://i.imgur.com/LHHWT1z.jpg It was also signed by the guild which made it. This one says "kokkoukai" http://i.imgur.com/GvJDopw.jpg In size it compares will to the 146 while being significantly heavier http://i.imgur.com/cbAcSIw.jpg So far I used up 2 converter fillings and on 2 occassions the nib ran dry so that I had to push the converter. There are also skips but rarely. I suspect the problem has to do with the push-converter and I am trying to fix it. If you have advice Ill be greatful. http://i.imgur.com/dcEPzjd.jpg Overall the finish has won me over. I love this pen! The weight also feels unexpectedly good, true the hand hurts a bit after long writing sessions but the pen also feels more valuable than lets say a 146. In smoothness it compares well to the Montblanc F but it has slightly stiffer feel. I can already tell this pen is a keeper and I do not keep many pens permanently. One last shot of when the sun hits the gold powder. http://i.imgur.com/PbqR98Z.jpg
