The Platinum Preppy is one of the classic fountain pens that serves as both a gateway into the hobby for new enthusiasts and a stalwart everyday carry option for seasoned fountain pen aficionados. With the Preppy Wa, Platinum has continued its limited edition series in six new patterns inspired by traditional Japanese designs. Each pen features a different design with a clear plastic cap, and fills with a Platinum cartridge (included) or a Platinum converter (sold separately). With silicon grease or o-ring, you can even turn the Preppy into an eyedropper.
