Czar Nikolai 144 as a new addition to my collection

Just purchased this beauty and loaded it up with some Waterman Harmonious Green. I much prefer the LeGrand 146 size but couldn’t pass up a good deal on this almost like new 144.

I’ve only been collecting for a little more than a month but am definitely hooked. In addition to the Nikolai, the below were acquired this past month (all fountain pens)…I get just as much enjoyment from the hunt of acquiring the pens as the day to day enjoyment of using the pens.

-vintage 146 - 1970s-1980s
-149 circa 2010-2015
-146 black and white doue
-146 ultra black
-146 ceramic prisma (on the way)
-146 ramses ii (on the way)
-146 platinum modern (on the way)
-146 blue hour
-starwalker resin with blue cap

Thanks for welcoming me to the club!
