Today in use, the Hamilton Cabot made between 1935 and 1938. One of the first models equipped with the 17-jewel Hamilton 980 movement, based on a movement of the Howard Watch Co. 14K yellow gold filled case with 18K solid gold numerals and hands on a two-tone dial. The pen is an early Sheaffer Balance in jade green color and one of the smaller pieces, with a length of 10.6 cm.

But don't you see? The pen is mightier than the sword.

A little something different, desk sets and Seiko. My camera was messing up so this was taking with my phone. I do not take too many pictures so I hope they are not too artsy.Could not figure out how to change to size to make them smaller though. :mellow:

Old and new in coexistence. Here is my Seiko 6309 with a Parker 1940 Vacumatic Imperial and Iphone.

Kathleen: looks like yours was a ladies pocket watch housed in a hunter case that was later converted to a wrist watch.

Hamilton Sutton from 1941 with the rare black enemal numeral dial and the Eversharp Skyline in grey from the late 1940s. Two lovely and streamlined pieces.

Watch is nice, but pen is great. Do you have a pic of the nib and who is the maker?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
