Omas The Paragon 150625 GT Fountain pen

Introducing the OMAS The Paragon 150625 GT Limited Edition Fountain Pen—a centenary masterpiece created to commemorate 100 years since Armando Simoni inaugurated the OMAS headquarters in Bologna on June 15, 1925. Limited to just 125 pieces worldwide, each pen carries an original OMAS 14k gold nib from 1939, preserved for decades in Simoni’s office safe and now revived to write a new chapter in Italian writing history.

A Centenary Tribute to OMAS Heritage

The Paragon 150625 marks the historic inauguration of OMAS at Via Orbi 4 (now Via Filippo Turati 8), the company’s spiritual home until 1979. Faithful to Simoni’s founding philosophy, this edition returns to the unmistakable twelve-faceted Paragon silhouette, crafted from genuine OMAS RAMS Cotton Resin—a material revered for its warmth, weight, and porosity. Reinforcing this classic form is a precision-machined 0.3 mm black titanium structural sheath, engineered to enhance durability and grip while preserving the tactile character of the resin beneath.

This is not simply a luxury fountain pen; it is a resurrection of OMAS’ golden era, uniting heirloom craftsmanship with twenty-first-century Italian precision engineering.

Original 1939 OMAS 14K Gold Nib – A Rare Historic Treasure

At the heart of each Paragon 150625 lies something virtually impossible to replicate: a new old stock OMAS 14K gold nib, produced in 1939 by the original in-house nib department. These nibs were safeguarded for decades and are now fitted with a 6 mm ebonite feeder and ebonite internal collar, delivering the unmistakable feel of a true vintage fountain pen—subtle, responsive, and alive in the hand.

OMAS nib-making remains one of the most intricate processes in fine writing. Gold, copper, and silver are fused in proprietary ratios, laminated through 24–32 meticulous stages, and tipped with iridium using traditional open-flame techniques. Each nib is hand-finished and tested according to historic methods once overseen personally by Armando Simoni himself. The result is exceptional smoothness, character, and flexibility—qualities rarely found in modern production pens.

Advanced Engineering Meets Classic Italian Design

The OMAS Paragon 150625 is technically singular and virtually impossible to counterfeit. Its barrel construction is a feat of engineering: a core of RAMS resin encased in a 0.3 mm titanium skin—not an overlay, but a structural sheath designed to protect while maintaining the resin’s direct contact with ink. There is no internal tubing or converter; instead, the pen features the traditional OMAS piston filling system, allowing ink to interact naturally with the barrel for maximum responsiveness.

Refined details complete the composition:

• Single-block cap with internal channeling and protective lining
• 18K rolled gold bands engraved with the OMAS Greek key motif, each hand-applied and finished
• Faceted clip inspired by Simoni’s late 1940s design
• Barrel affixed using tar in accordance with historic OMAS methods

The balance between flexible warmth and titanium-armoured strength creates a writing instrument that feels both traditional and contemporary—an OMAS “evening dress” in black titanium.
