I'm looking at a new pen as an early Christmas present to myself. I'm not a big fountain pen fan, but prefer either a rollerball or ballpoint.

Here's what I'm looking at and wondered if I could get everybody's thoughts/recommendations.

Caran d Ache - Ecridor Either rollerball or ballpoint

Caran D Ache - Metrub/Metwood Either rollerball or ballpoint

Parker 100 - rollerball

Sheaffer Legacy Heritage in Emporer's Silver - rollerball

I currently have a few Cross (ATX, Arcadia, etc.), Waterman (Carene, Expert, Hemisphere), Montblanc Meisterstuck, and a Caran d Ache Leman rollerball. I prefer a heavier pen.

Thanks for your help, thoughts, suggestions.

I'm new at all of this so don't know the pens that you mentioned. But I find myself using my S.T. Dupont Orpheo rollerball (either platinum or silver, I think) and platinum Cross Townsend rollerball a great deal. Both are somewhat heavy. I also own a Grifos rollerball, also heavy. My Delta Napoleon Bonaparte rollerball is gorgeous but a little much for every day--which is why I usually default to the Dupont or Cross.
