NPD Questions

3 years ago by jasongreen to c/fountainpens

I was recently gifted what I believe to be a Pilot Metropolitan Taupe Lizard (see photo)

  1. Can anyone tell me if I’ve identified it correctly?

  2. This is my first squeeze converter. Is it opaque? If so how do you guesstimate ink levels? All my other pens have piston converters with transparent reservoirs, so you can just look.

Since your pen is not a demonstrator and does not have an ink window, you'll know it's ink is low when it stops writing.

Inspired by /r/fountainpens, a place to discuss pens, writing, ink, paper, and whatever else makes your pen flourish.
