I have the wingsung 699 but stopped using it because ( a) takes too long to unscrew the cap (b) the section is uncomfortable and (c) I just did not like the F nib.
I'm not a fan of fine nibs myself. The Chinese fines are generally not too bad, for me anyway. A while back I bought a Waterman Carene in fine, but it writes more like a medium.
I don't have the asvine. But the 699, I can say for certain. It writes first time everytime even after not using it for a full year. The nib seal is fantastic imo.
With many pens, I do prefer chrome appointments. For me, though, once in a while, gold seems to compliment the overall color of the pen. What's nice is to have a choice.
I've bought some that I wasn't crazy about, but most of them I like. I've kind of gotten away from Jinhao, and have gravitated more to Asvine and Hong Dian. I do like some of the Majohn/Moonman pens, as well.
Most important.... write your script in advance and try to remember it so you dont have to.. mm.mmmm.... aaaaaaa.... you coverted 5 min video to 17 minutes. and that gaps were very annoying.
another thing is that the asvine is turned while the wingsung is molded
That's true.
what diff does it make?
@@mrmf4712 in the end, it really doesn't make a difference.
@@mrmf4712 doesnt really make much of a difference but turned pens are usually more expensive, also it allows for that cool filled finial you see

I bought the 699 to see if I would step up to the Pilot 823. I like it so much that I have decided not to upgrade.
If you have the money, I believe it's worth buying better quality. But, when someone is on a tight budget, pens like the 699 are the way to go.

The 699 is a nice pen, for sure. If you get the chance, pick up the Asvine to add to your collection. Overall, I think Asvine quality is top-notch.
I have the Asvine. It's a fine pen; a little bit difficult to get a full ink fill, but it can be done.
Vac fills are like that, but they last forever with a full fill.
a SILVER/CHROME hardware for me, thank you
The "gold" is over my head -.-

@@thepenman357 You are right and I agree, but...just once in a while B)
Wingsung also has a blue pen if I remember correctly. Have the two pens but my favorite will be the Asvine.
That is correct. All four colors are also available as piston fillers.
I have about 6 pens made from China, but all of them have different problems, so I don't buy them anymore.
which pens? all of asvine's pens are consistently good. dont write off a whole country cause of some bad cheapos
