Vacheron Constantin Overseas and AP Limited Edition Pen

So far, this is the nicest watch on the forum. (unless someone has a Patek Phillipe, but still, the Vacheron is hard to beat)

I'm new here. Have always had a passion for vintage automatic wrist watches. And fountain pens. My name is Sté, I'm a 36-year journalist gone corporate, and an American living and working in Switzerland. Hope you like what you see ...

Thanks, I really like it. It took me 5 years to find a watch which I really liked and for which I wanted to pay the money for. Been looking at Jaeger and Zenith, but now having found this watch I absolutely love it.

hi, lovely - especially the watch, of course. Looks like we both like vintage Oyster Perpetuals ... mine is 1942/43 and in excellent condition (and according to specialist made of all authentic parts - in a watch forum I was told the dial were restored. Appararently not so.) :-)

      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

      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.

      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
