Sailor Professional Gear and Professional Gear Sigma

"Professional Gear Sigma" seems to be the successor pen to the "Professional Gear". In some markets these pens are marketed as "Professional Gear II".

Soon here: a comparison between a Professional Gear21 and the corresponding Sigma.

Argentium silver  (patented in 1998) is a brand of modern tarnish-resistant silver alloys, containing either 93.5%, 94% or 96% silver. Argentium alloys replace some of the copper in the traditional sterling silver (92.5% silver + 7.5% copper) with the metalloid germanium. Argentium 935, Argentium 940 and Argentium 960 alloys exceed the standard required for hallmarking as sterling silver, and Argentium 960 silver meets the standard for hallmarking as Britannia silver (95.84% silver).
