You sure that's not an Imperial? The Legacy didn't even get introduced until 1995 IIRC.

 

Oh, yes. You are absolutely right. The funny thing is that I have the box, the guarantee and all, but it doesn't say the model anywhere. It was bought in 1976 by my father. Of that, I am sure...

On the way to the swimming pool, but stopping at the post office... Casio G-Shock and Lamy.

Nice shot, Carlos. I like the set-up and the juxtaposition of colors between the pen and watch. You're lucky it's still swimming weather there. Well, it's just about always swimming weather there.

Yeah... 32ºC in winter, 33ºC in summer... Only difference is humidity...

That is a gorgeous watch, and the leather you put them for the picture, fits perfectly!

      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

    • 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

      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
