Hi all,

I just order my first OMAS pen from Steve and right now waiting for it to be deliver next week. I hope the XF nib turn out to be the size I am looking for. I order a Fine before it is out of stock. I am used to Japanese M and MB XF for my everyday writting.

which model did you choose?

Congratulations on the pen. Let us know what you think when you've had a chance to use it after it arrives.

Thanks, I just read something about the OMAS Ogiva pen on the review section. It seems like OMAS nibs runs a little bit thicker than normal nibs. I think I will enjoy it.

Yes my first OMAS is here. While i think overall the pen is nice but twisting the piston is a bit of annoying. Another thing is that now i am not able to see how much ink is left, this might drive me a little crazy.

right now it is fill with Aurora black ink and it is going to be my daily pen for now.

True, no ink view window (which would be nice), but it does hold a lot of ink, so you don't have to refill often at all.

Congrats on your new pen! Maybe it's time for you to get a Visconti traveling ink pot. ; )

Well I differently take that into mind, if get the job I want than I will be travaling 6 month in a year I believe the traveling ink pot will come in handy.
