A novice try... My, I belive, pre-war Tissot with nylonstrap. And one of the rare ASKA. fine nib. Elegance and simplicity... to my liking. :)

This thread is all stunning. These are Pen World ready pictures if you couple them with short stories IMHO.

Rob Maguire (Plse call me "M or Mags" like my friends do...)I use a Tablet, Apple Pencil and a fountain pen. Targas, Sailor, MB, Visconti, Aurora, vintage Parkers, all wonderful.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

This is a new picture of my collection.

I just started collecting FP's (two years ago) and I have chosen to focus on just one brand.

My preferred supplier (no affiliation just a very happy customer):

Appelboom

Such lovely combinations! I have only one inexpensive watch and it in no way pairs well with any pens! :embarrassed_smile: This thread makes me want a nice vintage watch... I might have to start looking now.

Four of my favourite 'things'.....

 

Macbook Pro

Omega SeaMaster Professional - automatic

Pelikan M805. EF nib

MB 146 Platinum. EF nib.

 

All are used daily - I never take the watch off, the two pens I carry around with at work all day, and the MBP is my day to day workhorse. Also have a Macbook Air, but that doesn't get as much use.

I have that same Bond Blue Omega. It really is a great watch. It's just very light compared to my Breitling.

The pens are nice, but the watches? You have great taste!

very good pictures esp the Lange and RO, such nice watches and the snowcaps lurking in the background adds a nice touch!

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing
