The Turing-Welchman Pen

A limited edition of 211 pens to celebrate the achievement of Alan Turing and Gordon Welchman who created the Turing-Welchman Bombe machine used to break Enigma-enciphered messages during the Second World War.

The top of the pen is made in sterling silver to resemble the Bombe’s drum with the 26 letters of the alphabet etched into the surface. It rotates like the actual Bombe drum.

On the wide sterling silver cap band is the word “Victory”, the name of the first Bombe, and the UK hallmarks as a stamp of its quality.

Engraved on the barrel are the words “The Turing- Welchman Pen” to keep alive the memory of these most ingenious men whose secret activities during the Second World War helped save Europe from Nazi tyranny, and also triggered the start of the computer era.

And there is a secret compartment to hide your secret message – unscrew the barrel end, and there is a compartment to hold a small scroll of paper – your message to yourself, or to your loved one.

Indispensable

Successful men and women give credit, in after life, to the good habits inculcated in ther school days by the ready-writing use of Weterman’s Ideal. It is the writing representative of neatness, speed and economy. Regular, Safety and Self Filling types.

If it’s a Waterman’s ideal, it’s a satisfactory pen

Conway Stewart Capulet Sea Green

Limited edition of 6 pens named after Shakespeare’s play Romeo & Juliet. The pen features a genuine Conway Stewart stainless steel nib or an 18ct gold Flag nib.

The Conway Stewart Capulet Sea Green is a medium-sized pen designed for everyday practicality, with slim lines and perfectly balanced light weight. The Capulet pen range was the lowest priced Conway Stewart fountain pens when first launched in 2013, and so were the entry model to the whole British brand. As a consequence they sold in large numbers as an ideal everyday pen, or for someone new to fountain pen world. Many were bought as gifts and are much loved as a consequence For Conway Stewart collectors and connoisseurs; these pens represent possibly the final opportunity to add a Capulet to your collection.

The pen is made from hand poured acrylic resin which is highly polished and has shimmering shades of pearlescent to form a backdrop of swirling green colours. The Sea Green is bracketed with a highly polished black cap top and barrel end giving this pen a classic look. When the cap is posted, this bracketed theme is replicated with a black nib holder. The cap is fitted with a 23ct gold-plated Conway Stewart clip which compliments this colour and adds real distinction to this wonderful pen.

Each pen is housed in an original Conway Stewart black leather presentation box which doubles as an elegant desk display.
