New Conid pen from Belgium

Recommended Posts

I just got a note from the manufacturer that price information will be available in ~2 weeks.

 

Variations of this pen will be shown on this year's pen show in Cologne, Germany.

 

Cheers

I love everything about it apart from the ink windows, I think it would look even more classy with a simple clear window like Pelikans!

All the best.

Ah, it looks like they do have models with more conventional-looking ink windows, then. Cool.

I for one love the port hole ink windows, a cool departure from the old standard shape. A new pen to lust after, just what I needed.

The ink windows and wood grain hard rubber is what sells it for me too. There is definitely a nice whimsical nautical look to, and whimsical is a great quality in my eye. Definitely a pen I will be keeping an eye on

FP Ink Orphanage-Is an ink not working with your pens, not the color you're looking for, is never to see the light of day again?!! If this is you, and the ink is in fine condition otherwise, don't dump it down the sink, or throw it into the trash, send it to me (payment can be negotiated), and I will provide it a nice safe home with love, and a decent meal of paper! Please PM me!<span style='color: #000080'>For Sale:</span> TBA

It's been a long time so I'll ask.... What is the cost. I couldn't find a price on their website. If it one of those "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" issues I guess I'd rather not know.

The only feature to remain the same in all these versions is the wide cap band.

 

Material

Cap shape

Clip

Barrel shape

Ink view windows (which I don't like either versions)

 

no thanks

      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
