I have this wearever pen - the nib suffered a horrible death - tine broken - looking for a donor nib

I have a Wearever Zenith pen, that I won in a PIF. It has a 14ct gold nib and a 'see through' feed. I have no idea if it has the same size nib as your Wearever.

However, it doesn't really suit my writing style, and I said when I won it that if it didn't suit me, I would PIF it on to someone else. So you can have it if it is of any use to you. Please send me a PM. :)

I usee Chinese nibs off eBay to repair a couple Wearevers that had corroded/broken nibs.

I believe there to be an exact copy of that nib in the BoG and another slightly disturbed copy in the Beyond box.

My brain does not seem to be on the same wave length --- BoG?

BoG = Box of Gullibility

I believe Altec has a picture of it.

If you haven't found a nib yet, message me. I have a green plastic Wearever that is partially melted and the barrel and cap are a bit of a mess, but it does have a nib that looks identical, down to the asymmetrical tines (one is thinner than the other on mine, looks like in yours too from the picture, but could be perspective.)

Mine looks a lot like this one on eBay right now: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wearever-teal-green-cartridge-pen-with-aluminum-cap-and-original-retail-sticker-/351413233650 but has what I am pretty sure is the wrong cap, looks like a cap from a felt tip or something.

(edit: here's my nib):
