Sometimes I feel this is the most underrated pen of all times
It should have appeal to both collectors (huge number of variations) and the user.
It has great balance - nibs that range from XF to B, stub, italic etc. - ease of maintenance, good ink supply (cartridge, converter).
And it allows people to built a collection without breaking the bank.
What else can you ask for

I can't see the photo, Antonios

I see the photo just fine Antonio. I have an older black and gold Parker 45 from the 1980's. It is probably one of the best writing modern Parkers that I own.

Oh, I can see it now! Nice collection, AZ
My '45' looks like the vertical pen with the navy blue barrel and silvery chrome cap. The '45' is an underrated pen, for sure. Some of the barrel designs like the 'Harlequin' are really very attractive and the pen is a good solid writer.

Thanks for posting the photo.

Hi,

I have 3 45s. A flighter, a black GT and a olive green GT. You don't have a 45 without the markings "45" on it, do you?

Hurrah! Parker 45s! Good for you, Antonios! Love the camo and the all yellow ones.

best, Dan

Yeah,nice collection Antonio...

Yellow one is extra nice

Thanks,

Yellow and camouflage are Argentinian made

PS> Dillo, I do not know about the inscribed 45 - never paid attention on this detail. I will have a look.

They are great--I always have at least one inked as my "take-along" pen. They never fail and write forever.
