for a woman?
#1
#2
#3
basically, the first two are the same pen, one in gold the other in platinum. the third is a shorter, fatter pen, same overall style with a red stone. I like the first two because they're classic, but the third would be neat because it's a graduation gift from OU, so the red stone is nice (but unfortunately no platinum option on #3)
Not a woman, but I vote platinum.
I'm not a big fan of gold.
none of the above. I prefer fountain to rollerball
but aside from that I voted #2 because I like silver better than gold. But #3 has a good shape to it--it looks like the weight and balance would be nice.

Oh, and since its for a woman, does one of them have a vibrating tip?
Man. One of the few others who likes fountain pens. Mine keep getting stolen out of my office-I have a brief frisson of happiness when I realize that the person who stole it will likely have a bunch on ink on their hands shortly.

what brand/company?

Me? I usually go Waterman. I like Parkers as well, but they're spendy.

I heard they like 'em shorter but fatter, but that could be a myth.
yeah, my dad likes Parkers. He also likes Mont Blanc, but they're expensiveOriginally Posted by Frozen Sooner
He doesn't usually care about the collectability (whether they're perfect mint condition). He'll buy old ones cheap on ebay and fix them up so they work really well.
I used to use a little Schaeffer and pencil set all the time... I think I left them in Kansas.

Have you been to the mont blanc store in Penn Square? It's awesome.
I like the Pelikan Gaudi
only $1,095. If you want something more reasonable, the Visconti Master:
list at $500 for the rollerball, the Fountain Pen Hospital will sell it for quite a bit less. A little more unique than a Mont Blanc.
... that's not food.
Pretty sweet
I like Pelikan...
I was close with $200--I was thinking the $200-350 range for a pen and pencil set.

I'll end up buying her pen at the store in case she wants to exchange, now I'm looking for me, because every construction worker needs a really expensive pen.
Oh, and of the three options, I also vote for the platinum, #2.
... that's not food.
For you, an engineer/construction type?
The Aurora Leonardo da Vinci - $1,040.
... that's not food.
