Delta Titanio (Limited Edition In Meteor Acrylic)

[IWantThat]

All should get a look at the Delta Moma LE with carbon fiber and titanium nib. Views?

 

This looks like one I'd have to see in person and hold in my hand to decide if I like it. In general, I'm not a huge fan of orange pens. If it has the titanium nib, though, it's probably an amazing writer. The nib on my Titanio was off just a little when I opened the box, but I was able to adjust it with just my fingers, and it writes beautifully. Very wet, more than semi-flexible (to my mind), as I can see the tines spreading with the slightest of pressure. It definitely makes for an enjoying experience.

Beautiful pen, the meteor analogy is perfect to describe the color.

I've seen one in person. It looks better from a distance, but the overall shape and weight do make for a comfortable pen. There are aspects of the design that I like ( carbon finer), and others that I don't (numerous). Overall, I think it clashes with itself. The pen I saw had nib and feed misaligned, which is pretty normal for Delta (hey, it's Italian!), but even after I aligned them the feed/nib fit too loosely and so could easily move around. All in all not very good. Maybe 250-300 bucks would be a fair price. Also, just because the nib is titanium does not make it good. Best use of any given material makes for a good nib IMHO.

Thanks for your opinions on the moma design--guess it won't be making my 2012 list

Jonro,

 

Thanks for the review of this pen, to which I concur based on my Titanio. I got a sweet deal on a black one that I fell in love with - until I saw a Titanio in this colour.

 

Ah well, it's all about the nib anyway, eh?

 

Cheers!

Mike

I've just received my "standard" titanio and my nid is very different ....
