New Lamy 2000 Awaited?

[christof]

Recently, I saw THIS in a pen magazin. Looks like a new release of the famous Lamy 2000 for me. Does anybody know?

 

...needless to say that I will need one

No idea but I will own one if they release it!!!

[twdpens]

As per the caption in the photo, this model will be introduced in July this year. The nib choices will be the same as the standard Lamy 2000 fountain pen but the price will be the same as the dialog 3.

 

HTH,

Boy I'd love this, but that price ...

 

It's good to know, though.

It looks worse than the normal version... no ink window, solid colour...

[drwright]

Looks like they got rid of several of the things people often complain about: the little "ears" that catch the cap, small ink window, and slippery metal section.

 

Not that I agree with the naysayers

I hope they don't take away the old Lamy 2000.

 

Please reassure me...

[J English Smith]

Too monochromatic for my taste...this may be a prototype, of course.

[gregamckinney]

I like the look, which matches the description in a previous (earlier, more speculative) thread about this new pen.

 

I have one of the 2000 SE models, so I'm not sure I will pull the trigger on this new one. Tempting though.

 

Regards, greg

What material is that?

 

I guess it doesn't really matter though. It's too spendy for me.

According to the other thread, it is steel.

Best, greg

Without the ink view window, why bother?

[Orange25]

Not sure I like the single colour throughout. Hmm... I may come back to this and have a rethink, but at the moment, I'm happier with the current model.

[Apollo]

I like the monochromatic look. It's very understated, very minimalist... Very Lamy.

[christof]

Thanks for all the comments folks.... but the question was: does anybody know more than I do!?!

[asaha]

Just be curious, what is the real color, silver, grey or something else?

 

The gone window is a little bit sad.

[ehemem]

Is this a redo of the steel LE that Lamy put out maybe a decade ago?

[HDoug]

I like it. I'd love to see it when it comes out. The lack of ink window seems like a sacrifice to esthetics and not function which is not very Bauhaus, but then again, the Pelikan City series lack the window of the regular M600's and that's not a problem for me (and my Grand Place).

I quite like the look of it, since I missed the old LE version. I may have to get one when they come out.
