There Are Pandas, and Then There Are Pandas.
And this isn't either of them! The Pandas we're talking about here, are watches, not bears. And what got me thinking about them (again) was a link posted this morning by @cm.rook who pointed a few of us to the very attractive (and not terribly priced) Yema "Rallygraph" Panda which, in it's most traditional arrangement, looks like the one on the left, but can also be had in the version on the right: The model on the left is a true Panda, while the model on the right is called a reverse Panda.

My wife loves using fountain pens to create scrapbooks of our various adventures. Unfortunately we have noticed that the ink is fading on some of the older pages.
She has been using a Parker fountain pen with standard blue Parker ink cartridge.
Can you recommend any ink cartridges for Parker fountain pens that won’t fade? Or an ink she can fill the pen with herself? Or a different solution (preferably fountain pen but rollerball or otherwise if necessary).
She uses fairly heavy paper.
I would love to get her something for Christmas that will keep our memories clear for years to come! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise!
