Omasageddon!
Here's a few pics of my Omas collection so far all together. We have a maroon new style Paragon with rose gold trim, Milord in rosewood with platinum trim, Milord in rosewood noir with platinum trim, and a new style Paragon noir with ruthenium trim. These have been awesome pens to write with but all but the rosewood noir have had their issues. Definitely worth collecting though! I hope Omas makes a comeback one day. These really are great pens and it would be awesome to see them back in business.

Very nice! How do you find writing with Omas pens. I know of their quality but I have never had the chance to use one.

Great collection. My OMAS is my favorite pen. It writes better than my Mont Banc>

All but one of mine have needed work but not so much to the nib. Omas likes to send nibs off center to the feed for some reason in their newest stock. 3 of 4 pens like this. They do run nice though. The nibs have a little roughness that is actually nice. I don't think I could polish a nib to feel like these. I have had to heat set a few because they where puking ink but really a nice feel when writing .

I took a full compliment of Omas pens to work today. All Omas, all the time and it was everything I hoped it would be. I had fine nibs to broad. Super springy to stiff. In my pen case I had the maroon Paragon, noir Paragon, Ludovico Einaudi Paragon (omg the best ever), and an ebony rosewood milord. Can't say I got much work done but I did take a stupid amount of notes
