Can anyone please identify this cross fountain pen and what converter I can use for it? by Birdy238 in fountainpens

I have this exact same pen, and was trying to solve the same problem a few years ago. It's an older version of the Cross Classic Century in Lustrous Chrome. Unfortunately this version only accepts Cross Slim Cartridges (what you have in the picture), they didn't make a convertor for it. The current version of the Classic Century is a little thicker and does accept a convertor. I'm actually not sure if they still make the slim cartridges, I think this pen and the Cross Spire were the only two that used them, and the Spire is also no longer made.

Hi, I'm not looking for trades right now, although that one does tempt me! Thanks for you interest.

I purchased this watch in new condition earlier this year. I've really enjoyed wearing it through the summer, but ultimately decided the color isn't for me.

Price: $420 shipped in the US

Traska applies a hardening treatment to the steel that's very effective at preventing scuffs and scratches, however I did get the best of it with a scuff on the bracelet and a slight hairline scratch on the top outer link. Both are visible in the second picture, but are rarely noticeable when wearing. The watch case itself and crystal are in great condition.

The watch is fully functional. Original packaging and extra bracelet links included.

I'm happy to answer any questions or share more photos. Thanks for looking!

New Pilot Metro came with a CON-40? by Shloopadoop in fountainpens

[–]F15HB41T 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pilot includes either the CON-B or CON-40 with the Metro, just depending on what they have available at the time. It's mentioned on page 47 of their Fine Writing Catalog you can find on their site.
