Did Omas ever make a limited edition of the arco verde with the three cap rings?

 

I really like the three rings so much more than the greek key and already have the arco bronze and burkina but am not even sure if the arco verde exists. My arco bronze is the yellow gold trim and I am vigilantly searching for the rose gold. I started looking for the arco verde and am not sure it even exists.

 

If it does exist and if anyone happens to have one that they just don't want anymore, drop me a line.

Yes, Omas did make an old-style Paragon in arco verde with three narrow cap rings.

 

I bought one in late 2014, with rhodium trim, though gold was also available. Sadly, it leaked when I received it, and again after each of two factory visits, so I ended up returning it to the dealer for a full refund.

 

It was a shame really, as it was among the most beautiful pens I've ever seen :mellow:

 

It's well worth searching for, if Omas is the focus of your interest. Buona fortuna :)

      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

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      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
