L'etalon - Please Tell Me I....

[Quill1]

I am pleased it worked out well with payment/delivery. It is a very handsome pen, enjoy I will have to search to find one now in silver, silver/gold, or gold.

 

I too am in two minds about inscriptions, would really like to have known from start to make a proper informed decision.

[Chrissy]

I don't like engravings or inscriptions on my pens. However, for this price I would have put up with it.

I have several L'Etalon nibs in my Phileas pens, and I don't look upon it as a sacrilege. I look upon it that I'm fortunate enough to have bought the nibs, and to have been able to transfer them to my Phileas pens, since it is not a simple task.

 

You are right, of course. That L'etalon is just so beautiful, though. I think I would like to have something like that, as the capstone to a motley collection of pens.

The world balances out,

 

The mint unused Exclusive Cognac has just dropped on the door mat.

Now there's a thought, a nice glass of VSOP, a lovely new pen, such a splendid cognac colour, before being lifterd to the light, some quality paper with envelopes fanned out on my writting desk, let ones mind relax from the day and write to dear friends.

Apart from the VSOP that sounds lovely.

I'll have your VSOP if you don't want it.

 

The pen cost me £30 which made up for the Letalon disappointment.

Whit!!! 30 quid.

Where on earth do you dig these up from, for goodness sake.

 

In saying that, I landed 2 mint Maestros for £31 recently.

Not quite as good as your "find" but none too shabby all the same.

Tres belle!

[Quill1]

Out of interest, could the inscription be polished or flooded out?

You're welcome to it.

No, not on a plated pen.

Force is correct here.

I have a opportunity to get a nos silver version, my concern is this model copied/faked?
