my otto hutt full collection
otto hutt 02 and 04 series.
a brand whose pens have not gained popularity for now, but will be in the future.
writes well, holds well balanced, made of precious metal. their body designs are rather unique, plain, honeycomb and princess cut are not usually found. and as they are each numbered and the number only runs in 4 digits as the first 2 digit is the model number, you can be sure each design can only run up to 9999 pens. this number is usually not achievable for the number of pens made though, but coming back, it also means they are all limited edition.

Officially from Otto Hutt.
"You can tell a genuine Otto Hutt fountain pen by the nib
Every single component of each Otto Hutt writing instrument is perfect in its functionality, long-lasting in use and crafted from sustainable materials. In a sector dominated by mass produced items, they represent something truly special. Otto Hutt fountain pens are equipped with an Otto Hutt nib engraved with a unique brand logo. The company's own nib is a special indicator of quality; it is the heart of every fountain pen and makes each Otto Hutt fountain pen a delight to write with.
All OTTO HUTT writing instruments bear a serial number. A six-digit number is engraved into the cap of each item and recorded on the accompanying warranty card. This enables every proud owner of an OTTO HUTT writing instrument to unmistakably identify their own writing instrument.
OTTO HUTT writing instruments stand for immaculate craftsmanship, the best workmanship in every detail. The result is a range of top-quality utensils which can proudly bear the seal ‘made in Germany’. OTTO HUTT writing instruments give each pen that little extra which is so sought after by discerning customers who appreciate that a fine writing instrument is for life.
For 04 series: A very special feature and example of the high precision mechanised manufacture of these writing systems is the spring clip worked in solid brass, finished with a coating of platinum and perfect in its functionality."

Otto Hutt 04 series
Rectilinear design
design04 is an homage to the linearity aesthetic. Subtle design, subordinate to an uncompromising purpose.

Based on an original design by Otto Hutt. Classical form reimagined for the future and finished by hand.
Striped guilloché & Princess Cut
The barrels are made of solid sterling silver, the hardware components are platinized. The striped guilloché is double-cut. For the Princess Cut, a total of eighty individual lines intersect. One special feature is the mechanical spring clip: precisely machined from solid brass and finished with a platinum coating.

{from otto hutt's website}
now my assessment. the princes cut is very unique. the quadrant u see isn't cut lines, but the wavy lines that causes the illusion. the cap is also pure sterling silver. overall, the balance is good even when posted. platinum, brass, sterling silver and gold all in 1 pen. a very worthy pen.
