Not meant as an evil joke (honestly)... but whatever the dimensions are, I'm still tickled pink about now being able to buy a 60-62-ml bottle instead of a 150 ml pack.

I once read here lately on the forum that they did discontinue it, but it's still seems to be available on their site. I have it and have, until the present day, not yet ever seen any problems with it.

Cross yer fingas...

Well, you're (almost) right: the necks have exactly the same width. The shell is interchangeable.The neck of the new bottle is just slightly shorter. I measured from the edge of the shell to the narrowest part between the neck and the reservoir. The old bottle measures 58mm; the new one measures 55mm.

 

Thank you very much for measuring, that was very nice of you!

 

So, nobody has to worry about anything, as long as they don't use giant nibs. But then, they would be lost most of the time anyway.

 

 

 

 

There are still some manufacturers who have the integrity not to undermine their dealer network. What interest would you have in carrying a company's products if the company sold to your customers for less than they would sell to you?

 

That's right, but obviously, some dealers sell at the price at which they bought it themselves.

Speaking of colors, I can't remember anyone saying if the new bottles will be available in all the same colors as the larger ones were, but I hope so, unless, of course, they have added some new ones, too!

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

The new bottles are available in exactly the same colors as the old ones! You can use the same color chart!

Best regards, Tim

Very happy to see that the smaller bottle still has the valve. Does anyone know what pricing is going to be for these?

The big bottles are all gone. I'm really glad I got mine before.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Cinnamin did these comparisons and I found them helpful. She compared the images from the Akkerman ad and then compared them to the inky experience.
