Customer Reviews
This is the best made pen I have handled so far and I have tried all the usual entry level gold nib pens. It is a good weight in my hand and well balance when unpost or posted. The nib has a beautiful logo on it. The flutes in the body and cap are seductive, I find myself fiddling with this pen when I am not writing with it. When I first saw pictures of this pen I thought it would be heavy and too fat, but I was wrong. This is pretty much my favorite pen other than handmade pen I have. Give it a try.

This exactly what I was looking for in a fountain pen. My previous two pens have been Pilot Metropolitan and Lamy Safari. The Pilot is a great pen, very smooth and trouble free. I've never really liked the aesthetic, though. It's a little too fancy as if belongs in a bank. The Safari has an aesthetic that I like better although I've never been impressed with the pen. The nib feels scratchy and I often have rough starts. It's also HUGE. The large size draws a lot of attention and is uncomfortable for me to use.
The Magnum is perfect. The aesthetic is subdued and proletarian much more to my liking. The size is great. Its thin body makes it look like a regular pen and although it's a nice-looking pen, it doesn't draw much attention.
The performance is great. I popped a cartridge in and it worked immediately. Not as smooth as the Metropolitan but nowhere near as scratchy as the Safari. To me, it's perfect.
Pen Chalet was great. I live in Tucson which is about 100 miles from Pen Chalet. Amazingly, I received my order the next day after ordering. Not saying this will be the case for everyone but the order was packed and shipped immediately. Will definitely order again.

I am very impressed with this pen, it’s well balanced were not posted, the Nube is exceptionally smooth and accurate with no heart starts very beautiful consistent line. I was lucky to get it in the beautiful color as well (red). I would certainly recommend it, especially to an experienced rider looking for a very worthwhile and long lasting pen.

So, I have 4 of these Diplomat Magnums...Gray, Blue and 2 Red...Love the springy nibs and lightweight feel. Very consistent writing between the four....At $12.50...Do yourself a favor and stock up before they're gone.

A really nice pen. I like the design and the fell of this pen. It's a lighter pen than I normally use but it feels comfortable in the hand. It post securely and remains balanced. The best feature of this pen is it's smooth writing somewhat springy JoWo steel nib.

This is my new favorite pen. Bought mine with a Fine nib, and it's so smooth I'm thinking an EF would be good too. The best think about the pen is the distinctive click when replacing the cap. I can see owning this pen in multiple color and nib combinations.

I choose the fine nib to see how a steel nib compared to my med 14 K Aero pen. The fine nib was a very nice smooth nib and did a great job when I wrote with this pen in long writing sessions. Felt great in my hand. I love these pens so much I had to order the 14K Gold Broad nib for my pen reviews. A special thank you to Tom for letting me know the up coming sale .

Fantastically valued pen! The Magnum has a nicely understated look - casual and still perfectly respectable. The nib writes fantastically smoothly, and with its fairly flexible, stub-like nib, anything you write has a surprisingly nice bit of character. I have already recommended this in person and think it is a fantastic option for someone looking for a great writing experience at a reasonable price.

Beautiful, eye-catching design really stands out. Nice weight, the metal body is comfortable to hold. Can be posted, I prefer using it unposted. The fine nib is smooth, somewhat drier than a Pilot or Visconti, but no skipping or scratching. Worked great out of the box.

I just received my Diplomat fountain pen. I like the outer texture; it has a “matte finish” that is easy to grip. Everything seems fine, especially for an economy pen.
My only disappointment is the nib. I ordered a Fine Point, and everything from the shipping label to the tags on the case the pen came in, all say “FP”, but this is the WIDEST fine point I have ever received from any source. It is easily wider than most “Medium” nibs I have. So, I guess pens are like clothes and everyone’s definition of “fine” point is arbitrary at best.
It is a nice pen, especially for the money. Just wish it wasn’t as broad...

Product is great, as I expected, the issue I have is that I ordered two pens in different orders, same day. Still haven't received the second one. Other than that am pleased with your products

I purchased this pen as a potential replacement for a Waterman of much higher price I owned that recently got "lost". I wasn't expecting the ease of writing, the flow, to be the same. I'm very impressed. The value far exceeded the cost.

This is a unique pen. Very well built and fun and stylish. The nib is excellent too, laying down a super reliable, wet line.

For a Jowo nib I was expecting a super smooth experience like what my Edison Collier gives but instead I got a pencil. Line width for Fine is nice, body seems solidly made with thick plastic. It came with two short refills but one was empty which made me feel like the company is cheap. Wish it came with a converter. I like the textured body. Small pen too.

Glad I caught the Diplomat Aero on sale. Had never owned a pen of this brand but jumped on it because of favorable reviews seen elsewhere. The reviews had it right. It quickly became on of my favorite go-to, everyday pens. Love the color (orange), the heft and balance, the click shut cap, and it's an excellently smooth, reliable writer.

Nice everyday writer; lightweight and easy to carry. A good value; comparable to other plastic body pens like the Lamy Safari.
However, it was slow to accept ink and write. After it would not write after having had a cartridge in it for a day with the pen stood poin down, I soaked the nip overnight in tap water and that cleared up the problem.
