Which Starwalker?

[dwjpaypal]

Hi All,

 

I'm looking to purchase my first MB and I've chosen a Starwalker Fineliner.

 

The question is, which one?

 

1. Midnight Metal

2. Resin Red Gold

3. Red Gold Metal

4. Resin Platinum

 

I love the weight of the metal models, but I'm worried that the Midnight metal doesn't look like a MB at first glance, whereas the resin models do- and the price of the Red Gold Metal is really making me ask questions as to whether its really worth double the resin gold.

 

Please... help me decide!

 

Many thanks,

 

David

I have a Fountain Pen Black Resin with Platinum and love it. The Platinum pops out with the contrast. I love the modern lines of it. Look some pictures:

There's an advice in the "Service Guide" Booklet that came with my pen in page 42 that says: "The use of 'Burgundy Red' ink is not recomended for the StarWalker Midnight Black Series. The ferro-galic content (of the ink) might cause colour changes on nib and forepart in the long-term".

 

That advice is for the Fountain Pen, but wonder if that reaction can happens with other chemicals present in our life. Don't know.

I have the midnight metal ball point I love the pen great every day use, I also have the e star walker for my note 4 which doubles as finaliser and enjoy using this also.

I own three Starwalker: Midnight Black Ballpoint and Rollerball / Fineliner, and the Ultimate Carbon Fountain Pen. In my opinion, the Starwalker is the most beautiful MB line from the aesthetic point of vue (I like modern design, such as the one of the ST Dupont Défi, to give another example). That being said, I would choose the Midnight Black Metal, which will also be my next one. I tried the ballpoint some years ago and loved it (good weight, solid feeling, great design). Let us know...

I have the Midnight Black and it's beautiful. I will probably get the Rose Bold in the future to pair with it.

I have 100 Years Anniversary Black and Cool Blue Starwalker. My next pen (I wish) would be Resin Red Gold or Red Gold Metal. The only issue would be the price of the latter which is too hefty for a Starwalker!
