Thought I would post a few photos of my Pilot 823 dynamic duo. IMHO, P-823's are some of the best all around utilitarian pens that money can buy. I'm hoping someday to find a demo one at a decent price so I have all three types. For now these two are my writing work horses.
The amber one sports a Minuskin 1.1mm retip. The smokey gray one has a .7mm crisp stub ground by Michael Masuyama.
Another reason I love these pens is Pilots unparalleled customer service here in the USA. My grey one had the plunger filler go bad last year. I sent it to Pilot and they put a new one in no questions asked at no cost to me except shipping to them.

Anyway, here's the pics.
Blessings,
Dave
