So anyone who read my previous post I was interested in a Montegrappa fountain pen or an MB. Decided on the Fortuna as a first fountain pen and it should be arriving by wed! I'm already looking at a nakaya as a future purchase>.< pens and watches am I right? will post some pics once it arrives, thanks everyone for the advice and wisdom!

What fun it is to go searching for fountain pens and then deciding on a brand and then a model. There are so many excellent manufacturers from all over the world.....and just think, you can browse online, press a few buttons and in a few days to a week or so it arrives. Are we a lucky generation or what.....just think what was available back two to three generations ago. They had catalogs such as Sears & Roebuck and a few more to mail order from or whatever they could find at local department stores.......I believe we are very lucky!!!

Take care.....Leo

A Nakaya is a different beast! So many quality craftsmen in that company.

Love them! Just SUPERB!

I just found a rediculous deal on one of these and I'm reallllly tempted but I just picked up another Omas the other day. Next month, when I don't feel like I'm being completely irresponsible though.......
