it took a long long time for me to finally find out why a parker
vector make in UK, as printed on the cap, has a silver nib and a gold
clip and is a very well built pen. usually when you google for a parker
vector with gold clip, india-made version appears. we all know the
quality difference.
this UK version is a special edition to
celebrate the millennium. it was made in 1999 to 2000 and limited
numbers were made as it is not popular. because it is easily mistaken
for the india-version, quite a small number survive, not to mention one
in mint condition. This was from a reliable source whom knows parker
like the back of his hand and sold them before.
I bought it without knowing it is a treasure and had tossed it into my vault for a long time. now to categorize it.
one vector to rule them all !
Cannot go wrong with either UK or US manufactured Vectors.
