Hi all,
I purchased this beautiful Pro Gear from a Japanese online vendor. You can't get this color from anyone in the US as far as I know. The series is called "A-Mode" and the pens in this series are Pro Gear style.
This pen is A-Mode Green. The color is kind of hard to photograph. It's not Robin's Egg Blue (although that's what I thought I was getting). It's more a turquoise green. It's definitely beautiful with the rhodium trim.
The nib is a 21K hard-fine. It has no flex or spring to it, but writes a smooth super fine line (Japanese fines are more like Western extra-fines). It is a cartridge/converter pen.
The pen comes with its original box and papers and the converter. Inked only once with Diamine Marine. I will, of course, thoroughly clean the pen before shipping.
I am selling this pen because, even though I absolutely adore the color, I just don't like the nib. I prefer nibs with some springiness to them, and this one is just what it says: a hard-fine.
Asking $200 shipping included for CONUS. International buyers would need to pay for International Priority mail which is about $26.
