Gorgeous pen! Love the Centennial. I find that the parker nibs write somewhat broader and wetter than what they designated. Cheers!

The International model was sadly discontinued in about 2020. And you’re correct that is not the original box - that dates from c.2015 and was discontinued (in favour of a much simpler box) in c.2019/20. You can see the general trend of Parker caring less and less about the Duofold line.

Yeah I was pretty sure this wasn't the correct box.

Your videos are always on point, so I like to watch them. The pen is, well Parker, I don''t think they are worth the price. In this case the material looks interesting.

This is a beautiful finish. I wish Parker still made it. I own a much older Duofold pencil in a similar finish, but the celluloid (in that case) has yellowed a bit with age. I see your "fine" is as wide as mine! In your country, there are some retailers that sell different nibs for this pen, if you want to try something different.

Yeah I just picked up another Parker but with an EF nib, so I might need to buy a replacement nib.

I had the International in this beautiful finish and managed to lose it. It posted but was unwieldy. I saw what I believed to be the Centennial in the same finish on Sarj’s desk at the Birmingham Pen Show a couple of years ago but it turned out to be a Norman Rockwell special edition.

Ah yes, the Normal Rockwell is quite similar but a little more darker in the pearl colour. They typically do sell for a lot more.
