Great color combo with that indigo and bronze!

[@fortheloveofpens]

I agree, I hope they keep this one in production!

[@santauxia]

I've heard many good things about the Twsbi's but I do not own one just yet. My favorite is the Rose Gold Diamond 580.

[@fortheloveofpens]

The 580 is a great model!

[@Harkescreative]

I purchased two TWSBI Diamond 580's, one for my wife in the smoke and rose gold and the orange one for myself. Based on these, I plan on getting a set of Eco's (I'll be matching two complimentary pens as a set for my own reasons) at some point in the likely near future.

[@fortheloveofpens]

Sounds like a great collection!

[@knitfrau]

I just ordered this pen today!!!

[@fortheloveofpens]

Congrats, I hope you love it!

I've had the TWSBI Eco for about a month in a medium nib. So far, I haven't found an ink that works well. It's very frustrating, but I will keep searching.

[@fortheloveofpens]

I’m sorry to hear that, I find waterman and pilot inks to be reliable performers

[@Jolynn777]

Thank you! I'll try my pilot inks

I got my Indigo and bronze pen the other day. It looks like a winner. I tried to find an indigo blue ink but there were no matches for it. So I will either use Iroshizuku asa-gao or the Diamine Regency Blue.
I like how easy it is to disassemble the pen. I think theyissed the boat on not being able to remove the section.
I will try your suggestion to get a full fill.
Thanks for the review.

[@fortheloveofpens]

I wish the section could be removed too. And I am a fan of this color combination, but I agree it's pretty difficult to match with inks.
