## Description

A symbol of excellence since 1921, Duo fold remains the most distinguished pen in Parker's discerning lineage. Driven by a commitment to superior craftsmanship, every detail of the Parker Duo fold Prestige Blue Chevron Centennial Size Fountain Pen is carefully thought out and executed. Brought together by hand, this individually numbered pen features a precision-etched chevron pattern with a metallic blue varnish and distinguished 23-karat gold-plated trims. The ace-emblazoned 18-karat solid gold bi-tonal nib is covered with rhodium highlights and creates precise, flawless lines to ensure the finest writing experience. The Duo fold Prestige arrives in a Parker luxury gift box.

Review: Scratchy nib and issues - I have received a scratchy nib and there was a problem with the assembly of the body and rings. It started to fall apart as soon as I tested it out. Lastly, there was no warranty card or authentication certificate included. I wasn’t expecting all of this to happen when I bought this expensive pen.
Review: My only other pens used are the Pilot Metropolitian (Fine), Parker Jotter (Fine), and a Parker Urban (Medium). I purchased the Parker Duofold in black with yellow gold trim pen with a medium nib. I have only used Mont Blanc ink in it to start... First impressions are very nice. The box which this came in and the converter already in the pen give this pen a very high quality look and feel to it. I filled the converter with some Mont Blanc ink and got to writing. This pen is very wet with that ink! I believe the Mont Blanc ink is thinner than Parker’s Quink and potentially some other inks out there but I haven’t done my homework on that as I love Mont Blanc color offerings. This pen and that ink write like more of a broad or extra broad - very very wet and I don’t think I like that. The larger pen diameter definitely emphasizes this pen’s placement in the Parker family and makes a statement that this is a pen of status. It is well balanced with or without the cap and I wish it could be a little heavier to complete the luxury feel of it. Applying the cap to the end of the pen while writing is a little worrisome to me - there is only a small ridge which captures the cap and it doesn’t go on very far. I do not know if it is properly on and I find myself worrying about it when I write. I don’t mean to detest this pen because I want to love it, but when comparing it to the Parker Urban, it is not worth 10 times the price...I don’t believe it’s a 10 times better writing experience compared to the Urban. Using this pen made me appreciate the Parker Urban that much more - the Parker Urban is 3 times better of a writing experience compared to the Jotter, and the price reflects that. The Duofold is a nice ornament of achievement and gift of success. Being new to the fountain pen culture, I do not see the value of the Duofold, especially in comparison to Parker’s Urban fountain pen. I really really REALLY want to love it and enjoy the solid gold nib, and gold trim pieces and “Duofold” crest in the cap’s end, and the large two-tone Ace on the nib, and perhaps the more I use it, it may grow on me and I will stay open-minded, but for now, I’m at a crossroads.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much does the pen itself weigh? Below, it says 12.3 ounces? Is that the pen alone or with the box?**
A: The pen alone can't weigh more than a couple of ounces. Very light.

**Q: Why are people paying nearly 600$ for a pen?**
A: Hello curious pen buyer, Parker is a worldwide brand and the Parker Centennial Duofold Fountain Pen is their flagship pen. Meaning it is the premier product of the brand. Just like the F-150 is the premier product for Ford. It has a large 18 carat gold nib that comes in a variety of sizes like fine, medium and broad. It's a very large and heavy pen. When you see it in person it looks very expensive and elegant. It's a high quality product with a very recognizable brand name. It is not worth $600 US Dollars. I know I bought mine for about $400 US Dollars brand new from a reasonable seller. I think he regrets it because he doubled the price several months later. Whenever you buy a pen it is up to you to decide what price you are comfortable paying. I know some people who think paying $20 US Dollars for a fountain is crazy. I also think it's crazy to spend over $50,000 for a F-150 truck when you can buy a brand new SUV for half that price but the F-150 is the number one selling vehicle in America. So you can also say that the Parker Centennial Duofold is a status symbol as well. Just remember, when buying anything that is extravagant, is it worth it to spend that kind of money on a status symbol? Good luck on your pen adventures.....zaga zaga!!

**Q: On the blue chevron version what is the barrel made of?**
A: Hi, this is Ivana from Parker Consumer Care. Thank you for contacting us regarding our PARKER Duofold Centennial Fountain Pen. Please be advised that the barrel material is made from precious resin.

**Q: I like to sometimes sit on a rock and write poetry. It can get blustery.  Will the Duo work perfectly?**
A: Using a fountain pen is a mater of comfort and loving the feeing of the nib moves smoothly on the paper. Writing with a fountain pen is usually slower then with other writing equipment since it more like painting the letters then just script it. When choosing a fountain pen you have to find the pen that fit your writing habits you have to find a nib that is soft or stiff according the way you writing, choose the nib width fine board or in between, choose the weight that you are comfort with and the pen diameter. After you will get use to a certain fountain pen you will be able to answer your question by yourself. I use fountain pens for more then forty years, use it at any condition.

### ⭐⭐ Review
*by J***. on 21 March 2023*

I think the pens sold here are second grade items. The slit of the nib was not cut symmetrically. This is a small issue, but I expect gold nibs at this price point to be perfect. You also do not get a gift package, but standard box. I did send it back because of all this.
