Soennecken "Präsident" replica

[Fountainbel]

Hello fellow fountain pen friends !
Just finished a slightly “blown-up” replica of the famous first design of the Soennecken "Präsident “
Pen cap, section and filling screw are made from black celluloid, while the barrel is made from Montegrappa “lapis” celluloid
Clip , "GF" cap top logo and rings are home made from sterling silver.
Pen is equipped with a 14K size 8 Bock screw-in nib unit.
Contrary to the original, this pen fills using a “pump filler “ which allows a huge 4ml ink intake.
Obtaining the looks of the original filling system, the filling system looks identical, featuring a screw actuated filling knob shielding.
On the attached pictures you can see my design drawing - I have no secrets ! - and various pictures op the pen.
Às always your comments & thought are most welcome !
Kind regards,
Francis
