The previous one was too easy.

I propose you a new one...
A BOLD writer. I know the tines are not perfectly aligned, but it writes so well I'll not touch it.

Hope you like.

I think images need adjustment, Enrico; they say 1x1 pixels... or sure this is truly no easy identification! wacko.gif

My guess would be a Parker, maybe a Vacumatic.

From the feed I can tell it is a Parker pen, but not sure what model it is. A duofold? I know it cannot be a sonnet. Or it is actually something else?

Only two attempts?

Sheaffer Legacy 1

Ach! Before I got to the bottom I kept thinking that either this is a Sheaffer w/ an inlaid nib or someone mangled their nib. In shot #2 with the upwards swoop of the nib, as well as the feed, very inlaid nibbish, though the best clue was that curve! biggrin.gif

Yes, when I first took it out of the box I was strucked by the "up-nose" style of the nib (saw several pics, never realized how it really was).

Time to prepare new photos...

Oh sorry I didn't read properly! I thought you were guessing the pen corresponding with the nib pictures, totally forgetting you are the thread starter... embarrassed_smile.gif

Very pretty nib! I just didn't know the nib had such large "wings" as those. smile.gif

I think the original pic was a bit too obvious, so I trimmed it a bit thumbup.gif

Looking with a macro lens is very fun and can be revealing.

Thanks for looking.
