It is no secret that I am quite fond of Diplomat pens. I have already reviewed quite a number of them: the Traveller, Aero, Excellence A and Excellence A+.
The Diplomat Excellence A2 that I review in this video is a rather new model, the successor of the A, and really a hybrid in between the old A and the other current model, the A+. Here’s the differences at a glance:
- Excellence A: Push-on cap & regular clip
- Excellence A+: Screw-on cap & spring-loaded clip
- Excellence A2: Push-on cap (with new soft-close mechanism) & spring-loaded clip
But let’s have a closer look at the pen in the video-review below – as always preceded by some quick facts. Again, I hope the review is helpful and that you enjoy watching it!
