Thanks! Part of the price is the upgraded internal hardware too. I’ve been looking for this exact green for a few years, so I’m very pleased they’ve come out with this.
Sweet pen;I know you will enjoy that broad nib. Before you gift the ink give it a whiff if you haven't done so previously. It will make it easy to give away! The bottle I have has a strange odor that takes a long time to get out of my TWSBI 580. Rose gold is 75% gold/25% copper. Maybe that is why you're seeing the oxidation? It should shine up with a jeweler's cloth. I think it looks good like it is.
Like you, I'm not a fan of this green. However, I really like rose gold trim/accents on writing instruments (as well as timepieces). Thanks for the review.
TWSBI makes some excellent pens, but trying to get onto the 'limited edition ' bandwagon seems a bit rich. I certainly wouldn't pay that sort of money for what is a budget pen.
So thorough - TFS ✨
