Good day experts, hope you are all fairing well and keeping safe !!
I have had this pen for many years now, used it a bit when I bought it and then it has been left in a drawer because the piston filler got harder and harder to use as time went by.
An italian repair shop told me to leave in the drawer as it was not possible to fix it since Omas has shut down operations years ago.
I've tried again toget it fixed here in the UK but my repair guy says he can't get the piston to move at all even after leaving it to soak and he doesn't want to break anything.
Have any of you encountered this problem, that is if you have such pen ?
It really bugs me that it doesn't work but I don't want to destroy it at all trying to fix it given that spare parts are not available at all.
It wrote very well when it worked !! :-(
Really don't know what to do, broken for broken go for it or just leave it.
Thank you
Marco
