Faber Castell SV Watercolour pencils.
SV Bonding is a Faber-Castell trademark and all Faber-Castell pencils are SV Bonded. SV is short for the German word "Sekuralverfahren" meaning secural bonding or secure-all bonding. It is a process of gluing the lead to the wood on both sides and the full length of the pencil. This is meant to result in a strong lead that resists breakage and is able to be sharpened to a fine point.
I have to press harder to get same colour. It felt/looks shiny and waxy and streakier.

Me neither."
