Repairs and Restoration for the Parker “51”
We only do repairs on the Parker “51” and we do it well. We have been collecting and repairing “51”s for over 25 years and we have a passion for the “51” that few others have. We know the nuances of the “51” and there are very few problems that we cannot solve. We will treat your pen with care and respect and will return it to you in perfect working condition. We guarantee our work for one full year from date of service*.
*A note on repairs: “51”s have been around for over 75 years and over that time most have been repaired at least once, and sometimes not by the most competent repairers. This means that some prior damage may have been done to the pen, either by glueing parts, setting the filler too deep or not cleaning the pen properly. Sometimes some of the old problems can be fixed, sometimes they cannot, especially if the plastic has been compromised and has developed stress cracks. We will inspect your pen carefully and if we think that the filler cannot be removed safely without risk of breakage, we will let you know in advance and only proceed with your express authorization.
