    My parents only used Parker 51s. I had my mother’s 51 from 1958 which I recently gave to my Niece to use. I also had my dad’s 1958 51 desk set which my son now has. Both still write beautifully. I have a 75 ciscell (?). I purchased while in the US army in 1972. It has a dent in the cap, but it’s a beautiful writer, so smooth.

    I'm restoring several Vacumatic pens right now and every time I do, I am so impressed with what they did in the 30's that still holds up today.

    Would never trade a Parker Jotter for Mont Blanc or any other brand name however sound and prestige their name may be. The blue color, democratic price, ease of use and the light weight. Had one since the high school. I think it's timeless and indestructible. The existence of Jotter is perhaps one of the main reasons I write anything with a pen and not computer alone in this digitized age. If it wasn't for Parker pen I doubt I would ever need the experience of writing in the age of computers. This pen also trains your handwriting in a disciplinary way. My precioussssssss.

    I taught the arrow logo comes from the shape of the Parker Jotter refills. Because the tip looks like an arrow head and the blue plastic on the top looks like feathers. But the arrow clip is older than the jotter… Is it only my mind that’s blowing up right now, or is this a new Mandela effect??

    My MOST favourite pen .... Parker Calligraphy... since my primary school days. Even though original Company sadly closed down, in the Newhaven, UK. But brand name is still alive, and doing well, only trouble is, their Calligraphy range exists in Vector range instead of most classic ranges. Vector range proven to got bust at threading area where ink cartridge shelter unit connect to nib unit, after extensive usage and end up broken pen. I wouldn't mind spending decent amount for the Parker pen with 1.5mm or 2.0mm Calligraphy nib. Now a days I am end up doing DIY with Parker IM series with Vector 1.5mm Calligraphy nib. Wish Parker should make pen interchangeable nibs provided choice of nib.

    The quality of Parker pens went right down the tubes once the company left Janesville. Especially the Jotter. My Janesville made Jotter is a pleasure to write with but all the modern Jotters may as well be considered disposable.

At room temperature or air-conditioned, the rubber has melted and it feels sticky and it's very smelly. I've sent it to Parker Singapore and even their service centre can't fix this - the rubber just keeps disintegrating. Can Parker head office help?

    I want to convey the fact that parker pens in india are made of substandard quality and overpriced. The pens sold in india are not sold outside India. The collection of pen models are disrepute to the prestige of parker brand.
    Parker in india must upgrade it's product range and lower the price to remain a premium pen brand.

    I own a number of vintage Parker fountain pens, but the newer genus (apart from the Centennial) are poorly constructed, & posess a shorter lifespan. I note from other commentators that they consider this brand to be the ultimate; I'd have to disagree - but at the same time, I do not decry those early models - they were solidly built. It is a shame that such prominence no longer delivers that original quality...
