My grandmother insisted I take my grandfather's pen. Even though, by the looks of it, it's not going to see much use at all. It's with me purely for sentimental reasons. And yet, I cannot keep hoping that some day I would be able to fix it and use. My mother has the exact same pen, but that one works wonderfully well. It's got a 14k gold nib which puts down a very fine line. I'm assuming that this model is from the 1970s. It's a Pilot of course. But I don't know which model. I was wondering if it would be possible to fix this. The nib is gone, the ink sac is all but gone, and the ink chamber comes off. But the real issue may just be the nib. I don't know the model, so can't Google the nib compatibilities. I live in New Delhi, India, so it won't be easy for me to send it abroad to a skilled nibmeister. And I don't know of any here. But it would be great if someone could tell me the model of this pen. Seeking spares would become infinitely easier. Thanks a ton! Photographs follow. Images can be disturbing.
