Gravitas - Dinkey Timascus – Pen Venture

Gravitas Dinkey Skittle

The steel of this particular Dinkey gives it a more distinct weight compared to similar titanium models. While it contrasts in that regard, it mirrors their quality, fit and finish. Capping, uncapping and posting all feel smooth and reliable. And the Skittle's finish it everything I had hoped for. It's vibrant, colorful and shiny, without being a finger-print magnet.

This makes my fifth Dinkey so far now. It along with the rest all arrived securely and in a timely manner thanks to everyone on the Pen Venture team.

A stunning pocket pen

This is my fourth Gravitas Dinkey, and it's a standout among them. Like my others, it's got great build quality, smooth threads, and a reliable nib. The Timascus of the body and cap is simply stunning to look at. Its array of colors is mesmerizing and the feel of the pen is smooth and glossy. While I enjoy all four of my Dinkeys, this one has become an instant favorite for me.

A very satisfying small heavy pen

The PVD coating of this pen makes it stand out, especially next to my carbon Dinkey and my zirconium Quark. I have a Kaweco Brass Sport that I don't enjoy because it is much too heavy for my taste, but this much smaller steel pen feels great in my medium-sized hand. I thoroughly enjoy it as it is the only size of steel/brass pens that I might care to use, but it's not great at the "pocket" part of being a pocket pen. I wouldn't use it for that function unless for some reason I greatly need it to be able to resist being rolled over by heavy vehicules.
As always, you can count on Pen Venture for great service.

First date with my Dinkey

My Dinkey came halfway around the world within the week.
Thank you Pen Venture team for the fantastic service.
The pen quality and finish is stunning and with the raw finish to the grip section there is no fear of the pen sliding about whilst writing.
I changed the nib out for a 1.1 mm stub which writes silky smooth.
I still like to carry my pens in my shirt pocket so for me this pen and the Quarks would be the worlds best pens if they had a clip.

GORGEOUS PEN

I love Gravitas pens. The level of precision is second to none. The pen is absolutely beautiful. The pen comes with a steel nib but I switched it up for the BB 14k nib that came in my Kakari. I cannot wait until my pen has developed the beautiful patina I expect it will. As for the way it fits my hand. I have a large hands and it fits well when posted.

Gravitas Vac 2

The construction of the Vac 2 is flawless. The textures of the materials and it's simple lines display an elegant beauty. The large steel nib delivers a pleasant writing experience and also provides a bit of flex.

Amazing Pen! Gravitas makes one of the best piston fillers out there. I dont keep the nib and normally use the pen for coustom flex nibs with Jowo #6 compatible nib units. So, i really cant speak on the nib. However, this pen is just built with high quality components. The weight, feel, and overall aesthetics are unmatched. You wont find better at this price point.

Platinum Sansui - Smooth Operator

I recently acquired the Platinum Maki-e Sansui pen in a Medium nib. The Pen Venture team was kind enough to carefully inspect and tune this pen before sending it on to me. Many thanks for that. It writes very smoothly and with a steady flow of ink. The Medium nib is my favorite nib configuration from the Platinum brand. The line width is nice and thin and always writes consistently right of the box. This lovely Maki-e pen was no different. I highly recommend it.

Gravitas #6 extra fine nib

The extra fine nib came tuned to perfection—a joy to write with. Thank you Emy!

FANTASTIC!

The VAC 2.0 is a great improvement to an already great pen (the original VAC Ultem). The weight and balance are spot on. The cap and the new threads engage without hesitation. No missed closures and the cap has a nice stop when threading back on. It posts securely without issue. Filling with the Kraken system is easy. I got a medium nib and it is smoooooooth. Mine is on par with my 823 medium nib The smoothness, wetness and bounce would make you think it's a gold nib. Line width is slightly narrower than the 823 medium. The pen feels solid and well built. I'm not worried about this one getting knocked around. Overall a great pen. Shipping from Pen-Venture to Colorado was five days! Great pen and service all around!
