Nel [[1927]] i due fratelli Verga, Alfredo ed Eugenio, che fino ad allora avevano condotto insieme la ''Alfredo Verga dei Fratelli Verga Snc'', proprietaria del marchio [[Columbus]], si separarono. Eugenio rimase proprietario del marchio [[Columbus]], mentre Alfredo fondò una sua nuova azienda che prese il nome di ''Omega A.V.M.'' (registrato lo stesso anno, {{Marchio|35467}}), dove A.V.M. è l'acronimo di Alfredo Verga Milano.  

In [[1927]] the two Verga brothers, Alfredo and Eugenio, who until then had brought together the ''"Alfredo Verga dei Fratelli Verga Snc"'', owner of the [[Columbus]] trademark, parted. Eugenio become the owner of the [[Columbus]] brand, while Alfredo founded his new company in Milan, via Rugabella 9, that took the name of ''Omega A.V.M.'' (registered in the same year, {{Marchio|35467}}) where A.V.M. is an acronym standing for Alfredo Verga Milan.  

Although there are no registration aboit it, there are strong indications that the company was also the maker of the [[Ardita]] brand, a minor brand used in economic productions, because pens were found being branded ''Ardita A.V.M.'', <ref>you can consult [https://forum.fountainpen.it/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=13006 this topic] for details.</ref> characterized by the same acronym, and then resulted in further discoveries<ref>detailed in this [https://forum.fountainpen.it/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=14195 additional argument] with relevant photos.</ref> to be equipped with a nib marked ''Omega A.V.M.'', which leads us to think that this trademark was used by the company for its low-end production.

At least initially, it is believed that the company has maintained the production of [[safety]] models with  precious metal [[overlay]]s typical of the [[Columbus]] initial production. These models were followed by celluloid [[button filler]] models called ''[[Supernova]]'', and later also with [[lever filler]]. The information about this company are quite slim, but the production seems to be continued even after the war, with imitations of American models, in particular, is known a version of ''[[Supernova]]'' with a clip very similar to that of a [[Skyline]] and a wide band on the cap like the one found on certain [[Crest]] and [[Tuckaway]] models.

At least initially, it is believed that the company has maintained the production of [[safety]] models with  precious metal [[overlay]]s typical of the [[Columbus]] initial production. A mid-range production was marketed under the brand [[Vega]], to which was added the name ''"Ideal Fountain Pen"'' o ''"Ideal Super Pen"''. These models were followed by celluloid [[button filler]] models called ''[[Supernova]]'', and later also with [[lever filler]]. The information about this company are quite slim, but the production seems to be continued even after the war, with imitations of American models, in particular, is known a version of ''[[Supernova]]'' with a clip very similar to that of a [[Skyline]] and a wide band on the cap like the one found on certain [[Crest]] and [[Tuckaway]] models.
