thanks sidestreaker, i was inspired from your previous photo with your drawing + pens + watch ;D
hi thirdman, so far so good, very smooth writing, yet to get the ink i desire
not sure if you have similar issue, my pen seems like "sweat" itself inside the cap with water (not ink), is this normal ? ???

Cheers, I'll try to emulate your post, and this is as German pairing as I can get.

IWC Portofino VC with Montblanc Thomas Mann
A Swiss watch made in a German speaking canton (Schaffhausen) together with a German brand pen, which is a tribute to a German writer, Thomas Mann, who is now buried somewhere in Zurich, not too far from where the watch is made...

It happens sometimes. It's just condensation within inside the cap.
When you flush the pen and clean the nib, just use a damp cotton bud to wipe and clean off the ink that may be inside the cap, and let it dry.
Just don't flush the cap with tap water directly as excessive water may be trapped inside and quicken oxidation of the metal parts within.
