Elegant Accessories: Pens for Watch Lovers
Watch companies have upped the ante in the quality of their branded accessories ¡ª particularly in the case of fine writing implements, a category near and dear to the hearts of many watch collectors. In this 2009 column by Fine Pens writer Jan DiVincenzo, the first in our online archive of WatchTime’s popular lifestyle columns, we take a look at some of the standouts.In pairing a watch with a pen, the obvious preference would be for both to be of the same manufacture. And this shouldn¡¯t be difficult, as more and more watch companies now offer pens. However, most of these pens, like other watch-branded ancillary products, come from companies that do not specialize in making them. Cartier, for instance, has been making pens since 1924 and currently offers nine pen models, including the Santos, Pasha and Roadster, which match their respective watch models.

Amazing Cartier find by luck!
So, full disclosure, my wife is the amazing one who actually found this treasure purely by accident, but we're both equally pleased with it! As we were sorting through a lot of around 110 watches I came upon this one and immediately knew that it was the real deal. After checking all of the marks on it and doing a little research, it turns out we have a Must de Cartier, c. 1980s, mechanical, G.P. Vermeil. Still runs splendidly, still has the original jewel on the crown, and the original band with the signed clasp on it. I'm not sure if Cartier has anything special on the movement that I should be looking for, so that will require quite a bit more research on my part. I'm thinking we will try to get a new crystal for this beauty (as there is a scratch right down the middle) and a nice re-plating to finish it off. What a nice surprise at the end of the day, huh?

When did 5065 turn into 5167
From my searching on the net, I found the 5065 was created in 1997. I can't find when the switch occurred. Anyone know?
