A week or so back I impulse bought myself a Parker Urban Premium fountain pen. I have no idea why, except the deal was good, and I use a Urban premium ballpoint at work, and really like it.
I have to say I am impressed by this pen. It cost me all of $22 + postage, and the fit and finish are good, it looks nice. It writes smoothly, starts up as soon as the nib hits the paper, doesn't really skip. Seems like an absolute bargain for anybody wanting a beater fountain pen that they can carry and not worry about too much.
It also came with a convertor, so I can use it with my favourite bottled inks.
Does anybody else have any recommendations?
