Had the same oxidation on mine, rub off with a silver cloth I have hanging around. Came off quite easily in my pen. The nib and feed needs a good flush and cleaning. I have flushed it three times and the flow is still less than optimal - it is working, but could be better. I am going to send mine to a nibmeiser for tuning. It's a shame that I need to do this, but I suppose that's what I had to paid to get an old stock at a good price. Other than that, this really is a beautiful pen. This is going to be a really nice pen when I finish. Sigh,

Kuantsai.LeeI have the same issues with flow. I have flushed it 5 times and flow is still poor. If ilook closely on the "fins" or "ribs" on the feed (under the nib), they do not seem sharp. Some are rather blunt and deformed.
- Could this be causing the bad flow?
What material is the feed? Plastic? Would it take a lot of heat to deform them? I am suspecting heat damage..
- If so, can it be saved by a nibmeister, can i get a replacement feed or would I need a new complete nib unit?
Any input is welcome. :)

nakamoominI sent the pen to Mark Bacas at NibGrinder.com for tuning and it came back a couple days ago (Mark currently has a 30-day wait period). Mark increasing the flow and smoothed the nib. The pen now writes wonderfully smooth and wet. If you are not happy with the way your Chopard writes, I highly recommend Mark. What he did to this pen is magical.
