My newly acquired Parker 51 Aero! With the help of some fantastic members on here I have cleaned it inside-out and now it's an amazing writer!

The Sonnet with a Fine nib. I am in love wtih this fountain pen. I have others, but this is far and away my favorite. So I've bought three other ones so I've always go one handy and with different color inks.

I agree. I have five Sonnets and cant stop myself from wanting to buy more. I have three with 18k gold nibs and two with gold plated nibs. Great pens .

I like your collection Eduardo.

 

I used my 61 flighter today. The to-do list never looks more elegant than when written using the 61's OB nib... Almost a shame to cross something off the list.

At work today, a 45 Insignia, F nib with Pelikan Green ink and an English 51 Insignia with a "B-ish" nib and Quink Blue.

 

This evening, a late Mk III 61 Insignia, F nib, with Quink Blue.

 

Been sort of a gold pen day.

Ringtop Streamlined Jade Duofold inscribed "Muriel E. Reihmer." She has a fine, semi-flex nib that writes an xxf when held upside down, and I even put her on a long necklace chain to wear. :D

It's hard and expensive to buy a Parker 51 in good condition in china , so i alway take its "son"(Wing Sung 101) with me, which is made in 1984.

This kind of PF is good to write something fast. :D

 

And another one is hero 100 (whose father is parker 61),witn wood penholder(made by myself) and gold-planted cap

Parker Victory aerometric , Parker 17 and Parker Slimfold.

I love the gold nibs on these English Parker pens. Great writers.

Still using the Parker 51 with the orange Kullock shell.

 

And...a new member of the fold - Parker 75 Prince de Galles.

I have been writing almost exclusively of late with my Parker 45 that I've had since 1969, when I received it as a gift for graduating from Jr. High School. I have this and that pen, but the 45 is still just about the most pleasant pen to write with that I've ever encountered. Of course, I'm kind of used to it :-)

A 75 Cisele today, glorious.

I can only agreed. Sonnet is well balanced in every way. Currently I have seven of them, but will have more...

Today I used my Black and Pearl Duofold with Diamine Asa Blue.
