Jean Pierre Lépine - Winston est. c. 1995
Jean Pierre Lépine - Winston est. c. 1995
Good - nice and big; feels great to write with, pretty, great case, smooth writer, not heavy, easy on and off action with cap, good clip action
Not as good - nib seems a bit touchy (this may be the ink), does not post, fineal seems detached from cap slightly (there is a gap, but it isn't loose), big center band means it may roll a bit...
I bought this pen a few days ago off of a gentleman who claims he bought it in the mid 90's (he said 1995). It had been put away dirty and has some wear on the body and the section. Seems to write 'F' smoothly with a hint of feedback. I had some spotty starts that seemed to be based off of a sweet spot. Gentleman who I purchased it from says he mostly used it for signatures and it does take well to a heavy hand. While I have seen a review where a 'newer' model is post-able (shout out to Mr. Troy Laplante and his YouTube review), this doesn't seem to catch on the body and just bounces off when writing.
Sorry about the bad photos. No regrets about buying this pen.
