    another thing is that the asvine is turned while the wingsung is molded

    I have the wingsung 699 but stopped using it because ( a) takes too long to unscrew the cap (b) the section is uncomfortable and (c) I just did not like the F nib.

      I'm not a fan of fine nibs myself. The Chinese fines are generally not too bad, for me anyway. A while back I bought a Waterman Carene in fine, but it writes more like a medium.

    I bought the 699 to see if I would step up to the Pilot 823. I like it so much that I have decided not to upgrade.

      If you have the money, I believe it's worth buying better quality. But, when someone is on a tight budget, pens like the 699 are the way to go.

    Wingsung also has a blue pen if I remember correctly. Have the two pens but my favorite will be the Asvine.

    • @thepenman357

      That is correct. All four colors are also available as piston fillers.

    I have the Asvine. It's a fine pen; a little bit difficult to get a full ink fill, but it can be done.

    • @thepenman357
      @thepenman357  2 місяці тому

      Vac fills are like that, but they last forever with a full fill.

    I don't have the asvine.
    But the 699, I can say for certain. It writes first time everytime even after not using it for a full year. The nib seal is fantastic imo.

    • @thepenman357
      @thepenman357  2 місяці тому +1

      The 699 is a nice pen, for sure. If you get the chance, pick up the Asvine to add to your collection. Overall, I think Asvine quality is top-notch.

    a SILVER/CHROME hardware for me, thank you
    The "gold" is over my head -.-

    • @thepenman357
      @thepenman357  2 місяці тому +3

      With many pens, I do prefer chrome appointments. For me, though, once in a while, gold seems to compliment the overall color of the pen. What's nice is to have a choice.

    I have about 6 pens made from China, but all of them have different problems, so I don't buy them anymore.

      I've bought some that I wasn't crazy about, but most of them I like. I've kind of gotten away from Jinhao, and have gravitated more to Asvine and Hong Dian. I do like some of the Majohn/Moonman pens, as well.
