Incoming... an Omas and a Pelikan

G'day.

Received this beauty yesterday- a NOS old style Paragon Royal Blue HT.
It comes with a standard M nib which is very wet and smooth with some flex (they call it "springy" :-) Currently got it filled with J. Herbin Saphir.







Also took some photos of my Pelikan M800 Blue-O-Blue I got last month. It's got a 0.7mm binderised cursive italic nib. Lovely smooth writer with lots of variations. It's got Visconti Blue atm. Absolutely delightful to be able to have a semi-transparent cap!

Those are two great looking pens, Kai, congrats. I love the look of the Omas and the M800 is one of my favorite every day pens.
