| Size comparison
The photo above compares the differences between the 2000 Paragon and the current OMAS Paragon HT. The new model has been entirely redesigned. The length, capped, is 5 15/16" instead of 5 1/2". It has greater heft -- 48 grams, rather than 19 grams. The twelve facets on the cap and barrel remain. The rhodium plated sterling silver section is where most of the weight of this pen is carried. Even though it is more than twice as heavy as the earlier Paragon, it has good balance in the hand. For the Paragon with gold trim, see below. |

Possibly the most dramatic aspect of this
pen is the writing end. The two-tone 18k nib is fitted into
a twelve sided section flange. |
|||
| We have one of these pens with high-tech trim pre-owned with its original presentation box. This pen retails for $695.00. We are offering it for $465.00. SOLD | |||

| OMAS has made a one piece barrel, eliminating any possibility of leaks.
|
|||
| This is a big pen with a beautiful nib.
It writes easily using its own weight. |

| The generous presentation box includes
a bottle of black ink, a polishing cloth and an owners manual
with warranty. |

Dear John...allow me to comment on the
"Omas" Paragon 2005/6 -redesigned- Wow!! It is difficult
to find sufficiently strong adjectives for the combination of
John's workmanship and Omas manufacturing. What balance, writing
smoothness, curvaceous letters, and on and on. To say I am delighted
is indeed an understatement. The pen's weight and balance reminds
me of a 'Pelikan', one of my favorites, especially the '1050'.
Indeed I really do like heavy and large pens. John's work is,
paraphrasing Omas, akin to the paragon of many arts and without
paragon in his own craft.... I sincerely thank you for the outstanding
service and wish John a good summer holiday. |
