What Parker Are You Using This Day?

Dove gray 51 Vac Demi, Waterman's blue black. Fine, wet nib. Gold filled cap. With the cap posted, this pen has a great feel.

Black P51 cartridge/converter with F nib and lustraloy cap, c1960, with black Quink. It writes as well as every other P51 I have, so I can only presume the conjecture must be correct about it's "cheaper" image preventing it from achieving the same sales success as its traditional brethren.

Got my first 45 yesterday, a burgundy with the two-tone cap, and have been using it all day. It's a real pleasure! It's a 14k wet medium I got for a steal on eBay, and I'm keeping my eye out now for an olive version.

Parker 45, F nib, with diluted Andersons Ink Green Bay. Like TeaHive's pen, this one is also burgundy, but this one doesn't have the GF trim on the cap. The nib was replaced at Susan Wirth's table at DCSS because the original nib was missing the tipping on one side.

I just dipped my newly restore duofold junior and used it to write some notes as well as try out how well the repairer tuned the nib.

I used my P51 MKIII maroon aero very nice if I do say so myself. :)
