Cross Calais Chrome & Blue Refillable Fountain Pen – Medium Point, Black Ink, Smooth Writing, Presented in a Luxury Gift Box

Good pen for daily use.

Good pen. Please put a extra catridge

It is a very good writer ... The nib is a bit too thick . It can be compared to a broad japanese nib ... The writing experience is very good and its one of the smoothest writers . The problem comes with the cartridge , its very small and u cant find a converter which fits it . I found that jinhao international converter was barely fitting it , but there is a risk of ink leaking ...

Great balance, smooth

Its scratchy. When I write, there's a scratch sound that comes off the friction between the nib and the paper. The writing is not as smooth as it should be. I used Cross Ink, which is one of the premium inks available in the town. I use a Sailor, a Wordsworth & Black, and a Waterman, and this Cross is right at the bottom of this heap (as of today). Possibly, I'll give it some more time to adapt to my style of writing, but my first impression is that it's not worth the price i paid for it. The overall build quality of the pen is great. The Ink flow seems to be okay, at least for now.

It is one of the best renowned brands. I am myself hearing about the brand from past 50 years. It's a legacy to own such pens.

The flow was not uniform, inconsistent ink flow, sometime not writing at all, sometime overflow, I thought I purchased headache and irritation with this pen. But after some nib adjustment it's working now.

Beautiful and elegant and fine quality as expected. For people who use and know their fountain pens will love this one.

La scrittura è fluida e lineare. Conserva l'inchiostro molto bene anche dopo settimane di assoluto inutilizzo. Peccato che il caricamento è proprietario.

Excelente estilográfica y muy buena relación calidad - precio. Escritura fácil y suelta. El. Plumín no araña el papel y la base lacada es de un bonito color azul cobalto.

Excellent fountain pen and good economy in the use of ink. Comfortable to hold and of high quality.

Liegt gut in der Hand und ist gut zu halten durch breite und schwarzes Halteteil.

Questa CROSS Calais grigio opaco con pennino M, a cui ho montato una cartuccia Schneider color cognac, oltre ad essere sobriamente elegante e piacevolmente funzionale nell’impugnatura, risulta essere uno strumento di scrittura incredibilmente preciso, con un tratto fluido e al contempo nitido, che scivola via su qualsiasi tipo di carta senza senza alcuna fatica, regalando piacevolezza e soddisfazione, quasi fosse un pennello con cui dipingere. Davvero incredibile rispetto al prezzo corrisposto.
