If you're looking to treat yourself and want something stylish and elegant that writes brilliantly, I would suggest a Cross Century, Visconti Rembrant or Waterman Hemisphere. You might have to be a wee bit flexible on price but are all brilliant pens that will last a lifetime. All of them can use either cartridges or be bottle filled.

On the ink front, I would recommend Diamine. They do excellent inks which work well with all of my pens and come in a fantastic range of colours (both bottle and cartridge).

Let us know what you go for.

Hi James,

Thanks so much for the advice. I’ll definitely check out some of the brands you mentioned.

Not sure about you guys but I’ve been hearing a lot about a brand that goes by the name ‘Twisbi’. They do look quite quirky and a bit different from the usual conservative looking pens but not sure what you all think about them.

Will definitely let you know what I end up purchasing.

All the best!
Al
