Duofold Centennial Fountain Pen, Prestige Blue Chevron, Solid Gold Fine Nib, Black Ink and Convertor (1931369)

Let's be honest - the Parker Duofold Centennial Chevron Blue fountain pen is gorgeous. The intricate 18k gold nib with its two-tone design and the engraved ace of spades is wonderfully detailed, as is the rest of the pen. The blue chevron design on the barrel and cap is a deep shade of blue that goes perfectly with the gold trim on the end cap, band at the bottom of the cap, signature Parker arrow clip and finial, where the ace of spades design makes another appearance. The overall look is vintage elegance, and it's a show-stopper. The Duofold Chevron Blue has some heft, but I don't find it too heavy in my hand. Posting the cap makes the pen top-heavy to me. So, I write with it unposted and find it well-balanced. I purchased the pen with a fine nib, and find that it is a very smooth writer on just about any kind of paper. The nib is fairly stiff, as a Duofold is designed to be, so I don't get much line variation, but I do get some. Even the fine nib lays down plenty of ink, and I don't have any problems with skipping or hard starts. The Parker Duofold uses a cartridge/converter set-up for ink, and I generally use the converter to maximize my ink selection options. Sadly, Parker uses a proprietary cartridge design, and standard international cartridges won't fit. I find it easy to fill the converter, though, and I haven't had any problems with leaking or ink flow into the feed. The Parker Duofold Centennial Chevron Blue is one of my favorite pens in my growing collection. It's beautiful and a great writer. It's not inexpensive, but I think it provides great value for the money versus some of the higher-end fountain pen brands. I fully expect to enjoy using it for the rest of my life.

Let me start by saying this is a great fine point pen. The listing though is a bit confusing. To clarify; you get one pen, with one ink cartridge. You put the included ink cartridge in the pen and you have one working pen. There is no second refill, and it is not just a refill either. It’s one complete working pen and a box. Why so pricey? 2 reasons: 1) It’s a Parker, that’s like asking why Prada purses are so expensive. 2) The pen is fantastic quality. The trim is not just yellow colored foil, it is gold; and the pen is quality. The point lets you write even if the pen is held at a 25 degree angle, as in almost lying flat. I also used it upside down and wrote till I got bored, with the point straight up in the air, and the ink did not stop flowing. If it’s in your budget, and you want a very nice pen, this is the pen for you. You’re not just paying for a name. You’re buying a hand assembled gold trimmed, precision writing instrument.

I’ve owned three MontBlanc pens and I feel this to be far superior. Beautiful, weighted , well balanced and smooth ink flow. Wonderful materials in its construction. Twice the pen for half the price. Buy it. You won’t be disappointed!

This Parker is a lovely addition to my collection. This fountain pen is heavier than many models, yet I prefer this in my writing. I discovered this model on another site and searched for purchase options. The price offered on Amazon was considerably less than others. This fountain pen has a smooth writing nib and looks beautiful in hand. Add it to your collection and give this seller a try.

I got the Blue Chevron version of this pen and it is quite beautiful (needless to say, at this price point you buy the pen more for its looks than for its nib). First - the pen is big and heavy overall, but the cap is what makes the statement (it is BIG). Without it, the size of the pen is "normal", although still on the hefty side, which I like. A lot of metal went into making this pen, which I also prefer to just "resin" (i.e. plastic). The section is metal, but more of the "brushed" kind, which makes it comfortable to grip, unlike the polished type. This pen is a conversation starter - if you pull it out in any setting - people will instantly talk about it. Some people like this, others don't, but keep it in mind, if you plan on taking this pen outside your home office. The pen came with a gold-toned converter which was a really nice touch. No issues with the converter. I got the Fine nib and have no problems with it, wrote as expected right out the box, something rare these days. It's a big nib, which is not my preferred size, but I knew what I was buying. Combined with the weight of the pen, it requires absolutely no pressure to write, all you have to do is just glide the pen, especially if you are writing on Clairefontaine. And it looks amazing. Overall, I have no regrets buying this pen.

Parker is known for its quality and this Duofold continues that legacy. It writes incredibly smooth, just like my other Duofold, both new and vintage.

This is a visually stunning pen, very comfortable, the nib has a beautiful flow. My concern is that the blue chevron on barrel feels like it may loosen when I tighten after filling ink.

Love this pen. Nice size and weight. Easy to use for long periods and there is always the Parker quality.

Muito boa a caneta, mas não é discreta. Chama muito a atenção usá-la no meu consultório médico. Os pacientes ficam olhando para a caneta...

Kalem oldukça şık ve yazımı çok yumuşak. Yazısı küçük olanlar için EF uç daha iyi olur. F uç olmasına rağmen M gibi yazıyor.

I have received a scratchy nib and there was a problem with the assembly of the body and rings. It started to fall apart as soon as I tested it out. Lastly, there was no warranty card or authentication certificate included. I wasn’t expecting all of this to happen when I bought this expensive pen.
