What is your opinion of the quality of this item?
Cross has a tradition of being understated--this works well for some but not everyone's choice. I love this pen and have found that Cross did a fabulous job with both the design and the quality of the fit and finish. The blue, jewell tone is lustrous and so pleasing to hold, and the nib is a Pelican partnership with Cross, so you are getting two wonderful products in one. This is one to own, use and pass on to the next generation. The fine nib (my pick!) is smooth and predictable, and a great everyday fountain pen that is not too showy--classic and classy!
