Nice! I have yet to get OMAS for myself...

Tried to win a pen on an auction site but the bid went astronomical on some of the OMAS pens...

Someday...

The auctions are getting crazy these days especially for arcos. You can still get some fair prices on the older style Paragon along with a stray newer Milord here and there. All of them are great pens! The new ones might need some nib tuning though. That or I have bad luck with nibs lol

indeed...

Newer ones are probably more reachable.

I can alwaya send pens to Mr. Mike Masuyama if the nib needs to be worked on

I am using a Lamy Safari with a broad nib. I had a box of Lamy black ink cartridges drying up so used one today.

So far today (it's still early) it's been the family heirloom Sheaffer Balance Oversize, F (I think) nib, newly inked up with Birmingham Schenley Park Thicket Green.

So far only a Platinum Balance, with Birmingham Waterfront Dusk

Closing out the year with a Stainless Steel Liliput. The nib is an extra-fine that came with a mild baby's bottom, but a few passes on a polishing stick fixed it right up.

Nice:)

I actually love Demi. With the cap posted, it is a perfect size for me

Visconti Watermark in yellow gold with a 1.3mm stub palladium nib today. Have not used this pen in a while. Really a great pen!

Got a TWSBI Diamond 580 AL silver for Christmas. Inked it up with Diamine Meadow.

 

Also got the Monteverde Luna desk pen. Not a fan of it, really... Review coming soon. Glad it was a gift and not something I spent my own money on.

My new Lamy Studio in racing green came in today! I have the pen inked with a new bottle of Diamine shimmering Arctic Blue. The nib in fine is pretty scratchy so Ill swap it out with another Lamy nib I have around. The racing green finish looks great though and Im happy to have it! The converter it came with has a media blasted finish of which I have not seen before on a Lamy. Not sure if its exclusive to the limited edition but its different for me.
