Airmail Wality 71Jbrcc

[hari317]

Here is another variant of the C/C models from Airmail. This is a flat top model. The box still says 71JB. Airmail Price list mentions a model called 21 DUO and no cartridge version of the 71JB. So there is still some confusion. https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/361820-airmailwality-models-ready-reckoner/

 

Anyway I hope you enjoy these pics:

Purchased a few more of these models in colors that I did not have. The pens arrived in a simple pouch with a plastic eye dropper and Schmidt converter. No box no fancy eye dropper but same price. There are nib point options now. I chose B. 


 

 

 

comparing new nib left VS previous lot’s nib right:

 

the B nib is super smooth

Beautiful pens. The nib appears to be of higher quality compared to most of their models.

 

I have only one wality - 69t - and I like it. Now I only find myself buying ebonite pens, preferably large sized ones, otherwise wality is great value for money.

Thanks. Yes. The nibs on these models are smooth and directly usable for me especially after the B nib option.

No online sources at the moment as far as I know. Some dealers are selling these if you make contact through WhatsApp etc.

Hello @hari317 where can I buy this particular airmail model? I was looking into buying an airmail pen and now they are coming up with converter pens and I think this would be the perfect pen to buy. Can you send me the contact info of the dealers who are selling this particular model? Thanks.

Thank you for sharing pictures of those lovely Airmail offerings.

 

When your pictures appear in the heading of the forum, they are always recognizable because of the lovely setup and the unique writing instruments.

Inked up this brand new 71JB RCC in marbled Red, fitted with a Bock 2tone BB nib unit and converter filled from a new bottle of Sheaffer skrip Red. 

 

 

 

 

 

This is one lovely every day use pen Hari! I missed this review thoroughly. Loved this review & thread! Exquisite photographs as usual 😊

It is a Medium width nib, very smooth and a very nice, wet writer. Not a JoWo nor a Bock, the profile is different, the feeder and housing is totally different. Yes the nib is a no 6(35mm).

 

 

The nib unit is a Kanwrite nib unit and is the same as the desire, So availability of spare units won't be an issue. I also feel like the nib is also by kanwrite as the nib has very similar scrollmarks and the feel of the nib is similar as well

 

  

 

comparisons with my Kanwrite Desire

 

As you can see, the nib units look very similar

 

I was successful in interchanging the nib units and they go in just like the stock units did, Also the nibs look strikingly similar if not identical if you take out the kanwrite stamping from the desire's nib

 

So availability of spare nib units won't be an issue, and it will be relatively inexpensive to fix, if the nib gets damaged
