I used the Armando Simoni Club Arco Brown with the Magic Flex nib.

ASC has done an amazing job with their nib. Lots of line variation and it can go from a fine to a BB effortlessly.

I have 6 ASC pens now and they are just well above anything expected. The gold trim or the HT are all good.

There will be a time when ASC runs out of the old Omas Arco rod stock. I wrote the owner and founder of Armando Simoni and asked him about their ability to create the Arco rod stock and he said it was not possible. I think 10 years down the road that we will be very glad we purchased what we have.

Thank you I had it changed when I brought it to a double broad from a medium a And it’s a wet juicy writer, but it has a small ink capacity ,still it’s a fun pen

Agreed! And good luck with that lovely pen! Wet and juicy are terms that makes me jealous!

Very cool! I always liked the Pelikan styling.

Dan Smith has a Platinum of mine in his queue to do an Architect NIB!

Thank you!

My first fountain pen. I can see this becoming a dangerous new rabbit hole...
