Very nice! (+3 at this point, I suppose)

Can't wait to upgrade to those eventually :)

It's been awhile since I took any watch and pen photos, so I shot a few pictures this morning. A couple of these watches are quite old - from the 20's and 30's - but all still run nicely. Here is the first picture:

 

http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8114/8611093178_425677eb12_b.jpg

 

This is a Gevril Chronograph (basically an homage to the Rolex Daytona Paul Newman model) and a Waterman 454 overlay set in the rare Night and Day pattern.

The watch is a Gruen Curvex from the 20's or 30's, and the pen is an Aikin-Lambert Sleeve Filler. Note that it has a Waterman clip - this was about the time Waterman bought out A-L, so maybe that explains it.

The watch is a Lockman 1970, and the pen is a Parker Sr Duofold in Mandarin Yellow. I thought the yellow pen would pick up the yellow dials of the watch.

This is an Omega Constellation with two fairly rare pens, a Waterman 0552 and 452 filigree over Red Hard Rubber.

Here is my Rolex Submariner Two-Tone with Blue Dial and a pen that matches it quite well - a Wahl-Eversharp Deco Band in Lazulitic Blue from somewhere around 1930.

The last one is a Helbros jeweled watch from the Art Deco period and a Sheaffer Triumph Lifetime pen in Striated Carmine.

 

Hope you enjoyed seeing them. I am still not really happy with my lighting. :)

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
    • adamselene
      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
