Parker’s Big Red Duofold 10/10
Firstly, Good value and delivered from USA to Dubai in just five days. Great service. The pen is reviewed well across pen blogs and does not disappoint. I chose the fine 18ct nib and the line is more medium I’d say. Feed flows well and it’s perfectly set up straight out of the box with a variety of inks. Full marks to Parker for this and the nib is attractive with its ace of spades engraving. There’s no real flex, though the nib has enough give to keep your writing smooth. The converter is Parker branded and a push fit. It’s just ok (Montergrappa by comparison are screw fit and better quality - but then it’s FPs cost a lot more). And be sure to push the converter fully in, otherwise it rattles in the barrel. Overall it’s met my expectations comfortably. For $220 (AED880 delivered) it’s good value meaning the Duofold heritage in the classic colour ( with the cool Duofold vintage style engraving on the barrel) can be added to your collection secure in the knowledge you can use it every day.

J'avais commandé un exemplaire à plume fine parce que je savais que les «pointes» moyennes Parker avaient tendance à être assez épaisses. Je ne me suis pas trompé : j'ai reçu un (beau) stylo-plume avec une plume dont la largeur d'écriture se situe entre fine et moyenne. Pour ceux qui s'interrogent sur la présence d'un convertisseur (la pompe à encre), sachez que le coffret du stylo comporte deux cartouches d'encre noire... Pas de panique : le convertisseur est déjà placé dans le corps du stylo. J'ai choisi une encre noire Parker noire (Quick) pour alimenter l'outil. Quelques éléments techniques. Poids du stylo avec le convertisseur : 29 g. Longueur sans le capuchon : 13 cm. Longueur avec le capuchon vissé (donc stylo fermé) : 14 cm. Longueur avec le capuchon posté (clipsé à l'arrière du stylo) : 17,5 cm. Diamètre moyen du corps : 1,3 cm. Et maintenant pour l'écriture : écoulement bien fluide de l'encre mais sans exagération, plume douce qui glisse parfaitement ; elle reste rigide. Elle n'est pas faite pour les pleins et déliés ; je «trimballe» le Duofold partout dans un petit étui en cuir : la plume ne sèche pas ; elle est toujours prête à écrire. Pour les amateurs de croquis à l'encre : il est possible d'effectuer du «reverse writing» (écriture ou dessin avec la plume retournée) pour obtenir une trace très fine correspondant à celle d'un Lamy Safari doté d'une pointe EF. Enfin l'ensemble : très bel objet qui fait son effet — j'ai acheté le modèle Red Vintage. Sobre mais très chic. Article cher, évidemment, mais vu sa qualité (Parker haut de gamme, tout de même !)... Il faut donc l'acheter lorsque le prix baisse sur Amazon. Je suis très satisfait de mon achat, de la livraison et de l'emballage. Je recommande pour ceux qui veulent (se) faire un très beau cadeau.

My first impression of this pen is that it is very high quality and well-polished. When I took it out of the box, there were no signs of micro-scratches anywhere and the engraving on the barrel is nice and crisp. I like the look of the nib and I'm equally impressed with how it writes. It is quite wet for a fine nib, and because of that, the line width is more of a medium-fine than a fine. The nib writes very smoothly with just a hint of feedback, and the ink flow really brings out the shading characteristics of inks. I also like the attention to detail on the pen. The Duofold logo on the finial is almost perfectly aligned with the clip, and the engraving on the barrel is always visible while you are writing, which shows the amount of thought they put into the design of the pen. It would be good if the grip section was slightly thicker, but overall, I really like the pen and I'm glad that I purchased it.

Prima di tutto, su Amazon questa penna si trova a meno di 500€, mentre nei negozi si arriva anche a 700. Non è una differenza piccola. Secondo me non è una stilografica da 700 euro, per fare un esempio non avrebbe senso secondo me pagarla più di una Pilot 845 Urushi, che ha materiali più pregiati. Arriva in una custodia Parker così così, non da penna di grande valore; ma visto il risparmio ci sta. La prima che ho ordinato scriveva malissimo, probabilmente un lieve difetto del pennino, ho fatto il reso; ma dopo un mesetto ci ho riprovato, e ho fatto bene, perché questa volta è perfetta. Come avevo letto in varie recensioni anche fuori da Amazon, la punta fine in oro ha un tratto quasi medio, di pochissimo inferiore a una M giapponese, e leggermente più largo e bagnato ad esempio di un F Faber Castell o Leonardo. Sul piano estetico, a me piace moltissimo. Trovo tutti i dettagli squisiti: il logo sull'estremità del cappuccio, la scritta serigrafata, il pennino bicolore. E' ben bilanciata e adatta a sessioni di scrittura prolungate. Per me, a circa 480 euro è un acquisto consigliatissimo; meno a prezzo pieno Amazon (sui 580). Le foto non rendono merito al colore: è un arancione molto vintage, diciamo simile al color mattone. Non aspettatevela rossa, non è rossa, nonostante il nome. Regolatevi!

Parker Fuellfederhalter haben unter Fuellerfreaks leider nicht den besten Ruf, der Duofold ist aber eine, vielbesprochene und hochgelobte, Ausnahme. Die Groesse des Centennial entspricht ziemlich genau einem Pelikan M 800, zählt also schon zu den Grossen. Im Bilde der Vergleich: Montblanc Meisterstueck 149 (oben), Parker Duofold Centennial, Pelikan M 1000, M 805, M 205; im zweiten Bild direkter Vergleich mit dem M 805 (rechts). Die feine Feder meines Centennial schreibt mit etwas Feedback, aber nicht kratzig, federt schoen (nicht so schoen wie die grossen Pelikanfedern), man bekommt auch durchaus verschiedene Strichbreiten hin. Umgedreht schreibt er sehr fein, durchaus praktikabel. Insgesamt ist die Feder eher nass schreibend, was ich als sehr angenehm für eine feine Feder empfinde. Die Haptik ist gut und auch für laengere Schriftstuecke gut geeignet. Der Preis? Bei einem flagship pen immer zu hoch und gerade bei diesem hier extrem schwankend; wenn man ein Liebhaber des gepflegten Schreibgeraetes ist, sollte man im niedrigen 300er Bereich aber durchaus zugreifen. Das ist er allemal wert.

Much better than expected. I have an extensive collection of great pens but no Parkers. Like another reviewer I was biased against their modern pens preffering vintage ones. This big red duofold has changed my opinion, above all the nib is a dream and the build quality is sound. Very happy with my purchase maybe I won't be as sniffy towards modern parkers anymore.
