....Waterman. Both the Edson and Exception are fully worthy of consideration. The sterling silver editions of these pens are truly stunning. BUT - and this could a problem for some buyers - the nibs are stiff as nails. Great smooth nibs, but VERY stiff. On the other hand, Conway Stewart offers a multitude of different pen models and delightful colour combinations. Their nibs are a little less stiff, but still very high quality.
If you can only afford one pen, go for the Omas Paragon - or the often overlooked 360. Otherwise, if you are greedy like me, get a Waterman and a Conway Stewart as well to match it and have different writing experiences.
Cartier and Dupont are nice but way overpriced.
