The Platinum Preppy fountain pen is a terrific value for the price! This is a perfect starter fountain pen, or a wonderful option to keep at your desk. The pen features a clear plastic body, and a matching green stainless steel nib. The nib does run a little on the fine side, and is available in fine (0.3mm). The Preppy accepts Platinum cartridges or a Platinum converter to use with your choice of bottled ink. It comes with one green ink cartridge, and the proprietary Platinum converter is sold separately. If you would like to use international cartridges instead, an optional adapter is also available!
This pen feels way more sturdy than my Kaweco Sport. It's a great pen for the car as is but I plan on eye-droppering it when I run low. Can't speak to the car functionality of this pen after modification. If I was going to buy it again I would not go with fine.
