Hi,

Just putting together some fountain pens, and notice the Rhodium version of the Jr,Gent 2 has changed slightly compared to the other platings.

It has a square edge or squarer edge on the center-band coupler where it meets the lower barrel, and the trim rings on the lower barrels are no longer rounded over, but cut square with a matching squarer thread.

I knew they had changed the threads to square, but noticed the components are now squarer, but its only on the Rhodium Jr.gents, not the Gold or Black Ti or the Rhodium Jr,Statemans?

For us, the rhodium sells the quickest.

So, you should probably anticipate the rest will follow as CSUSA stock is rotated. (Products sell)

Just didn't know if I had a rogue batch or this had been noticed by anyone else? Rhodium's definitely more popular here too!

Are any of yours the newer style? Think i prefer the more rounded older ones! haha
