Parker Duofold Centennial Fountain Pen | Classic Big Red Vintage | Fine Solid Gold Nib | Black Ink and Convertor | Premium Gift Box

Firstly, Good value and delivered from USA to Dubai in just five days. Great service. The pen is reviewed well across pen blogs and does not disappoint.I chose the fine 18ct nib and the line is more medium I’d say. Feed flows well and it’s perfectly set up straight out of the box with a variety of inks.Full marks to Parker for this and the nib is attractive with its ace of spades engraving.There’s no real flex, though the nib has enough give to keep your writing smooth.The converter is Parker branded and a push fit. It’s just ok (Montergrappa by comparison are screw fit and better quality - but then it’s FPs cost a lot more). And be sure to push the converter fully in, otherwise it rattles in the barrel.Overall it’s met my expectations comfortably. For $220 (AED880 delivered) it’s good value meaning the Duofold heritage in the classic colour ( with the cool Duofold vintage style engraving on the barrel) can be added to your collection secure in the knowledge you can use it every day.

Excellent fountain pen.
