Lamy have different 14K gold nibs 2000 series nibs Z 55 --> dialog 3, studio, cp1 and others Z 56 --> imporium palladium finish and rose gold Z 57 --> imporium black and black/gold finish I'm planning to upgrade the nib of my Lamy Logo with a gold springy Lamy nib (I want a springer nib without expend much money buying another pen, I like my Logo), but what are the differences between Z 55, Z 56 and Z 57? In pages like nibsmith or appelboom for example, Z 56 and Z 57 have a higher cost compared to Z 55. Of course! Z 56 and Z 57 are the Lamy imporium nibs and have some minimal differences in design (no breather hole)... But talking about only the writing perfomance (springiness and other aspects that affect writing experience), what is the differences? Anyone has tested and can compare those nibs?

Hello all, I'm a new fountain pen user [only a few months]. I have three Lamy Safari, and right now they're all sporting F nibs. Last night I was examining them all with a magnifying glass, trying to figure out why they all write differently with the same ink and same nib size. In a little "cavity" underneath the nib, in the feed, I noticed a number, and that was different on all my pens. I have to attach a picture to explain what I mean ... i.e. where it's located. My charcoal Lamy, had a 4. That's the one I like the best because it actually writes fine. My blue had the number 10 and that's the wettest of them. Any idea if this number plays any part in how the pen behaves, and if so ... how would one know this when one buys the pen?
