I am sorry but I am quite limited with my computer ability. I neither take pictures nor paste & whatever.......I am able to master certain skills & have really not the interest to expand those. I am quite comfortable to use my laptop for searching & acquiring information or pens & supplies. BUT I have found the same pen currently offered on Ebay. It is an Italian seller: shop_martemodenausa"& the item #: 151171652309 ending January 15, 2015. I was a bit shocked to see they valued their pen as highly as they do as mine was a lot less for the identical pen (NOS, 2 boxes & papers.)

As much as I love the Wagner in this pen I am anxiously awaiting it's next fill of Diamine Anniversary Safari! It will suit the pen equally well & should of course offer the same characteristics. I currently have the Safari in a B nibbed Nettuno Tridente which is VERY close in size to the M in the Omas. Strange how 2 Italian nibs differ. BOTH nice but I honestly feel NO reason to tamper with the Omas nib. And yet glad I waited three months for Aurora to switch the M nib to a B. Their M would have probably a Sailor B.

But since my return to the fountain pen world this past April with the help of this forum & many helpful dealers found herein I have certainly broadened my interest & appreciate so much more now. I refused to use blue ink for months until I met Private Reserve American Blue. Closely followed by OS Blue Merle, Herbin's Myosotis, Dupont's Royal & Nuit Bleu until I just received 2 bottles of the Montblanc JFK! Had I NOT seen these inks described here I doubt I would have tried them BUT here I am broke but happier now than in April! Thanks again for everyone's shared interest & knowledge.

I can't believe this ink is getting so much love. It's literally the shade of boogers. lol

One trick if you want to try a sample from the music or flower sets - Diamine currently offer a free 5ml sample if you spend over £10 and these inks are listed. I've sent for the Wagner as a 5ml sample, now to see if it arrives ...

Great combo.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
