Vintage Omas 360 Nib Angle

[jmwaldhelm]

Hi all,

 

I am considering buying an Omas Vintage 360 Arco Celluloid from a dealer outside the USA, si I won't be able to handle the pen first.

 

I am left handed, and concerned about the nib angle.

 

I ran across this statement:

 

I'm told that the 360's point is offset at a certain angle to facilitate comfortable writing, but I can't tell. Unlike the Parker 75, which allowed the poyint to be rotated to the optimal position for the user's grip, the 360's point is press-fitted in place; some dealers will adjust the point to your preference if you require it.

 

Does anyone know if this is the case? Can a lefty successfully use this pen?

 

Thanks!

Got a 360 and am a lefty although do not write over the top . It has got a very wet medium nib but no problems with writing. Try to go for a fine nib and a dry ink combination

Thanks! I don't write over the top either.

 

I have read their F nibs are great.
