Is the Platinum Prefounte just a fancy Preppy, or is it the best value fountain pen on the market? After using this pen for 6 years, I have the answer.

If you are looking for a step up from the Platinum Preppy without the metal body of the Plaisir, this might be your perfect match.

IN THIS VIDEO:
Durability Test: Did the plastic cap or barrel crack after 6 years?
The Nib: Why the Medium (05) nib is the absolute sweet spot for smoothness.
Slip & Seal: Does the ink really stay wet after months of non-use?
Value: Is it worth the price jump from the Preppy?

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Do you prefer the extra fine feedback of Japanese pens, or the wetter flow of a Medium nib? Let me know in the comments!
