Hi everyone, I'm looking forward to buying my first watch, I'm thinking about the a158 or something like that. Unfortunately, at the moment I don't have the money to buy it, but my brother kindly gave me his old g-shock ga2100 until I can afford the one I want.

Now, I have 2 questions:

- I'm no expert, but for an 18 year old girl, would an a158 look good or can you suggest me a better model? (I'm quite masculine and sporty btw)

-Should I wear the g shock or would it look silly on me since im a girl?

Hi everyone! Since I'm interested in having a side hustle, I tried making a pocket notebook. This is a prototype, do you think it is worth selling? I was planning on using vinted, and I'm based in Italy. Realistically, are there people who would be interested in buying a handmade picket notebook?

I personally write with fountain pens most of the time, but when I'm out of my house I don't bring them with me. Rollerballs are the closest thing to fountain pens to me, especially Uniball Airs. In fact, I would say they are my favourites, but unfortunately they tend to show up more on the back of the page because of heavy ink flow.

So if I have to write on cheap paper, I always bring with me either a V5 or a Uniball Eye and they never disappoint me.

After trying many pens to decide what's my workhorse, I came back to the V5, I think it's simplicity is just the best. I usually get bored of a pen after a while but this one is just perfect, it's as smooth as a fountain pen, but at the same time I can bring it everywhere without worries that it leaks or breaks down.

It's been a while since I've finished one of these though, if I remember correctly these last a good while don't they? How much do you usually use them before they run out?

This is what I usually use every day, mostly for school work or journaling:

-Kaweco Sport inked with Diamine green-black

-Pilot Kakuno inked with Pilot black ink

- Sakura micron 03

-Muji 0.5 gel pen in blue black ink ( it was a gift, I never use blue ink though)

-Pentel Energel 0.7

-Pilot precise V5

-Pilot G-2

-Pilot ballpoint Super Grip M

Of all of these, I find myself using the G2 most of the time, with the exception of journaling, where I only use fountain pens.

What would you add to this collection, considering that I would like to try some other kinds of pen other than gel, maybe more rollerballs idk...
