The TWSBI Diamond 580 comes with a benchmark piston ink-filling mechanism and has all detachable parts. The clear demonstrator barrel allows you to see your ink color and remaining ink level. It has a clear grip section and screw-cap. It comes with a stainless steel nib and is presented in a modern clear display case.

The idea behind the TWSBI Diamond 580 was to go back to basics and capture the simplicity and elegance of traditional writing instruments. In recent years, the development and modernization of writing instruments has resulted in traditional writing instruments, such as fountain pens, falling into obscurity. It was TWSBI’s goal to bring the past back to life by creating a traditional fountain pen that even modern day society can appreciate.

The TWSBI Diamond 580 is a classic fountain pen with a piston ink-filling system. By fusing the traditional mechanisms of the fountain pen with a modern industrial design, TWSBI has created an eye-catching fountain pen that is simultaneously appreciative of the past and relevant in the present.

TWSBI’s belief is that it is important to allow the user to disassemble and reassemble the pen and completely experience the traditional aspects of owning and using a fountain pen. These pens also come packaged with a wrench and silicone grease. Neither of these accessories are intended to be used immediately, as they are for long-term care and maintenance. Additionally, please use extra care if you choose to disassemble the nib and feed, as the feed is very fragile.

You may notice a white substance on your 580AL or 580ALR pistons. This is white ball bearing grease, and must not be removed during cleanings, or replaced by silicone grease

TWSBI Diamond 580 Fountain Pen Clear

The TWSBI Diamond 580 is an attractive demonstrator pen with piston filler mechanism. Its faceted barrel catches light and makes your ink shine, and it also helps keep the pen from rolling away.

The high-capacity piston filling mechanism is easily operated by twisting the knob at the end of the barrel counter-clockwise to extend the piston, submerging the nib in ink, then screwing the knob tight to retract the piston, drawing ink into the pen straight from the bottleno need for cartridges or a converter! Be careful, operating the piston while ink is in the pen will cause ink to leak out of the pen.

The pen comes in an attractive clear plastic case with a clean, modern design. For protection, the plastic case is packaged in a cardboard box.

Note: This pen only uses bottled ink, which is not included with this pen.

A quick no brainer guide in choosing nib sizes in an overly complicated fountain pen world:

• If you write small, go with anEF
• For the normal writer,Fis the most popular
• If you tend to lean on a bigger font,Mwill be perfect
• Bis for statements!! Sign a check in B, write a header in B, do some coloring/shading in B
