Parker reinvented the pen with the Parker 61, a pen with no moving parts. Capillary action fill the ink well and the teflon ink well repels ink. Just dip the end of the capillary filler into a bottle of ink and the pen refills itself.
When I took it out of storage, the ink has dried. So I soak the nib in water for a while, follow by the end of the capillary filler. I was then able to write with the pen. Amazingly the capillary filler still functions well. I could have written written with some antique Parker pen ink as well!
