But my Favourite is a Cross - Townsend I think:

That's a Cross Century II. Nice!

Thanks bought it a while back and couldn't find the box to make a positive i.d at the time of posting!

I have a couple Parker flighters, and my favourite is definitely the 95.

 

More info here.

I have the Pilot 701 and the Murex, and I love both pens.

Another is Sheaffer Triumph Imperial Chrome (90s reissue). A beautiful pen that writes beautifully, smooth as butter.

 

I think its tapered shape complements the diamond nib design better than almost-Bauhaus, too simple cylindrical Targa.

Nice watch!

 

I've always thought Rolex went better with Montblanc. Both are archetypes of their kind.

 

Omega goes better with Pelikan, IMHO. Lesser known (as in only aficionados know them) but superior quality products.

Another modern pen you might consider is the chrome finish Pilot Vanishing Point.

+1 I love my Pilot Vanishing Point chrome finish

Nice pen. I never knew Parker made pens in Brazil (I have seen Parkers from Argentina, I think). I remember seeing well made Brazilian Compactor fountain pens. Do you have any? Pictures?

That is a nice pen, any web site that you know of where I can order that Parker 51 model? Regrettably I am getting hung up on stainless steel pens :embarrassed_smile:

Parker has made pens in Brazil from 1958 to 1987. They had a factory in Argentina too. I have another brazilian Parker, it's a P45 Insignia.

 

I don't have Compactor pens, but I have two Johann-Faber (a Faber Castell subsidiary) brazilian made.

[liapuyat]

I find them a bit slippery and slim to hold, but I do like my two Pilot Birdies, and my SS Parker Vector.

[richardandtracy]

For me there is no pen to beat the Parker 61 Jet Flighter - with a fat medium nib these pens are amazing.

my favourite would be the pilot M90, followed by the steel targa.

My new stainless steel pen... There are no model name stamped. The closest model I've seen is called BASIC, but there are some differences. Does anyone knows this Reform???

I was informed by a sales person at the New York Boutique that the MB Thomas Mann is constructed out of high grade stainless steel.

For everyday work and meeting use, I use mechanical pencils and BP pens. I write too hard and fast for FP's during meetings. As a result of some forums on both favorite BP's and Mechanical Pencils. I bought both a Parker Jotter in Stainless Steel and a Pentel Graphgear 1000. The Pentel, according to a review, is metallic with some aluminum. They both have been great. The Parker Ink refill is great.

 

Which got me to thinking about a FP in Stainless Steel. Do you have a favorite Stainless Steel FP? Do they make many?

My go to pen is my Cross Century II FP in a med nib and is lustrous chrome using Aurora black ink.

 

Writes smooth, fast ink flow and wet.

Agreed Mont Blanc 149 stainless steel chrome pen is a beauty. Is that from the meister stuck series?
