TWSBI Diamond 580

“TWSBI is the only pen I own that you can set aside for months, pick up and use without issues. They are airtight beyond imagination.”

“I agree that the 580 is more refined but I prefer how the Eco writes.”

“I vastly prefer my ECO to the 580. I ended up selling the latter, it just didn't feel or write as well, but the ECO just feels right and doesn't lose anything if you ask me!”

“I love them both.”

“I agree on the price as far as the 580 being hard to justify.”

“I STILL don't reach for this pen. The grip is ridgey and slippery (even though my fingers are dry). So, those are 2 strikes for me.”

“My TWSBI Diamond 580 Smoke Rose is my absolute favorite! (I get so many compliments and curious looks at work when I take it.) As a fountain pen beginner, this is the one that did it for me, that sold me on using a fountain pen daily for journaling. It's so easy to use, smooth to write with and holds so much ink.”

“I ended up selling 1 of the 580s- I didn't really enjoy the section.”

“I would avoid the Diamond 580 ALR. I have two, and both grips have corrosion problems depite the coating.”

“A TWSBI Diamond 580 was my first fountain. I enjoyed the writing experience, but soon found that that not being able to post the cap was a little nerve wreaking for me.”

“does the 580 write so much better than the Eco to justify it's price point? My answer is No.”

“I own the TWSBI Diamond 580 and can attest that it is a wonderful pen.”

“I love the aesthetic of the Prussian Blue 580, but my favorite writer is my Vac Mini.”

“I have the TWSBI Diamond 580 Fine nib and my experience is similar to yours. It works well on thicker papers but the scratchiness is more pronounced on my Tomoe River.”

“Don't like the looks of Twisbis not for me but still a great video.”

“I have had the 580 and the Vac700R. I was not a fan of either.”

“My twsbi eco cracked, and my twsbi diamond 580 had a bad nib, but I would buy another because the nib from the twsbi eco feels great in my twsbi 580 and the ink lasts a month. Also it looks gorgeous.”

“My TWSBI Diamond 580 is the best pen I've ever owned! I use it daily and it never lets me down.”

“TWSBIs leave me cold, which clearly makes me an outlier.”

“I love my new Rose Gold 580. Some have said they’re heavy for long writing, but for some reason I find the weight is comfortable. And the nib is fantastic!”

“I have a Twsbi Diamond 580 ALR with an EF nib. It does write very fine lines and I have used it for my small handwriting. However, I changed it to a F nib recently because it is a bit scratchy to me.”

“I bought the 580 ALR with a fine nib but it was too scratchy (sound & feel) on any type of paper I chose to use. After 4+ years I finally swapped the fine nib for a medium and it now writes beautifully.”

“I have a 580 ALR (and others), probably my favorite TWSBI.”

“I have both and also choose the Eco over the 580.”
