I quite some time Schiele on these pens in this decor. I already have a fountain pen from the CROSS Century II series, which I bought in 1997. The M-spring has become a bit wide for my writing habit me, so it should be an F spring this time.
The writing characteristics are raised to be beyond any doubt. The pen wrote shortly after inserting the cartridge and has a nice, not too tight ink flow.
The only drawback, which makes the fountain pen for my purposes useless also, is the fact that the cap can be removed only with immense effort. I note with fountain pens and much prefer it if I can abschnippen with a finger rather the cap. This works better in some fountain pens in other not so good. But that I need to make two hands and still has fat cheeks, as with this model, I do not so far also not yet come, and in the price range (MSRP 110 €) not also acceptable.
Conclusion: For me useless, the part goes back.
