So I just placed an order for this pen from nibs.com

Sailor I find write dry and I was happy paying the extra to get it tuned.

It's going to be my daily pen as it's subtle to join my 5?ultimate pen collection that I am going to acquire

I was deciding between this and the Mont Blanc 146 with platinum Trim. However I had to have a sailor with a piston filler.

So the mont Blanc will be a 149.

Pen should arrived in 3-6 months

Now for the pictures

I agree. The ink window is what sold me. It just looks really classy

Buy it now and put the money in PayPal and think in 4 or so months you get a nice present :)

Sadly, I know without looking it's out of my price range. ;) I'll enjoy your review when it comes!

I really like the Sailor Realos.

It takes 3-6 months to arrive from Nibs.com??? I would have guess they are in stock or easily ordered from the the manufacturer. That's Nakaya wait times.

It's not taking nibs.com that long. The pen is being released in spring next year. They have never done the realo with silver trim before. So I need to wait till they release the pen before I can get it
