Any 3776 Fans?

I love that watches seem to overlap with another hobby of mine - fountain pens.

Is anyone else here a Platinum 3776 Collector?

I have quite a few Platinum fountain pens, some from the 3776 line but more from the Izumo and Nakaya sides of the family. The last one is a signed Maki-e by Ippei.

They’re great pens and I have a few, but they live in an unloved no-man’s land: less tactile than my Nakayas while using the same nibs, and generally not as good (personal preference) as my Sailor Pro Gears, 1911s and Realos.

I love them. Well made, nice writers, and reasonably priced!

Yep I like mine! A 3776 soft fine in Bourgogne and a Chartres blue with a music nib. Planning to add to the collection when funds are readily available. Great pens and the slip and seal caps actually do keep the nib from drying out after a couple years inked
