Apr 18, 2022 · TWSBI Eco- much larger than the Prera, can be used posted or unposted but I prefer not to post the cap, terrific ink capacity. Fine nib on the Prera will be finer than fine nib on the TWSBI Eco. Both take a shimmer ink just fine.

Aug 14, 2015 · Eco has the ink cap but pilot have the better nib. I can use the eco unposted, but the prera must be posted to use for long sessions. The best would be an eco with the pilot nib....

Sep 21, 2024 · Uncapped and unposted, the Prera is a little shorter than the TWSBI Eco. More space is needed for the longer grip section and the built-in piston filling system on the TWSBI. The Prera has a cartridge converter system allowing it to …

Oct 31, 2016 · I fancy either a white twsbi eco or a pilot prera demonstrator. Both are the same price. Can't decide which is the best. Both seem to have good nibs. I'm left handed but don't think it makes a difference here. Twsbi have had issues with older models but they seem to have resolved these with the eco.

May 22, 2020 · The TWSBI Eco is a full sized pen while the Pilot Prera is very small. My experience with the TWSBI Eco nib is better than that with the Pilot medium steel nib. The Eco nib has more feedback but is not sensitive to angle, unlike some of my Pilot steel nibs.

Oct 21, 2011 · If I have to pick one, I am probably going to favor the TWSBI - while (again) they're both great pens, the TWSBI feels more solidly built while the lightness of the Prera makes it feel fragile and a bit cheap in comparison.

Nov 7, 2014 · I'd think the Mini was a closer match in size to the Prera, and it posts securely. I have both pens and find them to be very different in many ways. The Prera is a lot smaller and lighter and holds let ink. In addition it's a Japanese nib (I have the fine) which may be slightly less fine than the TWSBI - EF that I have.

Apr 20, 2017 · I would add a vote for he Pilot Metropolitan if you don't mind a pen with a little heft, or a Pilot Prera if you would enjoy a short, lightweight pen. The Kaweco Sport looks cute, but the incidence of nib problems is significant, as a search for …

Mar 16, 2018 · In comparison to other pens, it is probably closest in size to the Sailor Pro-Gear Slim, and a decent amount shorter than Pilot’s other entry level model, the Pilot Metropolitan Pop. Left to right: Pilot Prera, Sailor Pro-Gear Slim Cosmos, Pilot Metropolitan Pop, TWSBI Eco. Overall, I enjoyed testing the Prera. It wrote smoothly from the ...

Apr 18, 2023 · Just last night I had both a Pilot Prera (with an opaque body) and a Platinum Plaisir in my shopping cart — for roughly the same price as each other, as the Plaisir is a slightly discounted 10th anniversary limited edition — although I ended up buying neither.
