Help me identify: Cross fountain pen

[fqgouvea]

Recently I decided to buy a random lot of older pens on eBay. Almost certainly a mistake, but I thought I'd try it. One of them is a Cross fountain pen. I was wondering whether anyone can help me identify the model. Here are some photos:

And a shot of the nib:

The pen did not come with a converter, so I suppose I need to get one from Cross. That's another reason it would be nice to know what model this is.

Thanks!

It is a Cross Solo. Inexpensive good pen. Thought to have been made for Cross by Pilot. (But of course that may be untrue.)

It takes the green push-fit converter. I own its stable-mate, the Radiance, which looks almost the same. I enjoy mine. Do enjoy yours.

Thanks! I'll order a converter for it.

Wow, I can see why Pilot comes to mind. If you are not paying close attention, it could pass for a 78G. At least that's the first thing that came to my mind.
