Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this 1990 OMAS Limited Edition Fountain Pen to celebrate the World Football Championship that was held in Italy. This fountain pen has been serviced by ultrasonically cleaned the Nib/Feed/Section, piston greased, and tested - it is in wonderful writing condition.

The Vintage Omas Italia 90 Special Edition Fountain Pen was designed to commemorate the World Cup Championships that took place in Italy. This pen series was one of the first special edition pens made by OMAS. The Italia 90 line of pens was available in two colors - green and blue. Green pens were sold in shops, whereas blue pens were only given as gifts to journalists and famous personalities. The unique green resin color of the pen is reminiscent of the color of the playing field. The band features a design that was created exclusively for the event, and the nib bears the I’90 logo.

The cap and barrel are in perfect condition with no cracks, nicks, scratches, or repairs. The pen has a 12-sided/faceted design in green resin. The cap is always securing tightly to the barrel. The gold-plated clip displays very minor wear in the center on the high point of the clip. The barrel is stamped with, "OMAS ITALIA '90". This fountain pen measures 5 1/2" capped and 6 7/8" posted.

This is where a great Omas fountain pen gets even better with a great flexible nib. The nib is marked OMAS 585 I'90 and marked with an EF for an Extra-Fine point - the iridium tipping measures .43mm when using digital calipers. When writing the sample in the listing images, the NIB writes with a medium line measuring roughly .61mm with light pressure and flexes to a triple broad stroke of 2.13mm with medium to firm pressure when measured with digital calipers. The writing sample provided was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Montblanc Black Ink.

This Omas fountain pen uses a piston filling system that I have serviced to operate smoothly. I have tested the filler with water and it works as it was designed to.

These Italian Omas fountain pens are no longer being made and only increasing in collector desirability. The condition of this Omas Fountain Pen appears to only been used a handful of times and I would consider it to be in excellent+ to near mint condition. This Omas would be a marvelous addition to your writing arsenal collection and a pleasure to write with.
