What's Your Most Recent Addition To The Flock?

[mirosc]

Hmm, not sure about if this would really be interesting. I remember 3 different types of 100N only, right?

 

Hi Christof, thank you for this nice overview! Together with your pictures that's a perfect reference for me.

I just bought an M205 on the Penchalet sale, which looks like your Pelikan above. It writes like a dream but its heft and length are even for my female hands a bit light. I also got the white.

 

This pen writes better than my best Montblancs, even the slimline that is my smoothest pen. If it were 10 percent wider and heavier, it would be perfect.

Look into getting one of the M215's. I have a M215 Rings and it is substantially heavier that my regular m2xx's. I don't mind the light Pelikans because I use them for seriously long writing sessions, but the m215 is a nice weight, if weight is an issue.

A little family portrait of my tortoise Pelikans... Most recent is the second one down; an 80's W Germany M400 that came to me last week. I don't think it will stop here, though... Anyway, for now here they are.

That's beautiful!

Pelikan 140's, the Bordeaux, and Dark Blue

 

 

 

Sorry about the less than stellar photography (I really do need to make one of those home made light boxes). The blue one is a rich dark blue, it has a crack in the cap top. Other than that both pens are in good but not pristine condition. With the addition of these two I thought I was creeping up on a full collection, ... then I looked at Werner Ruttinger website and realized the 5 I have are less than 1/3rd of all the possible permutations! Ah well, I like the ones I have.

Those 140's are purty! Very nice.

Pelikan M600 with 18C BB nib....I never knew modern nibs could be this flexible.

These photos should show the difference in colors a little better.

 

 

 

 

 

The all green model is currently out for a nib tweak.

I don't know how much can these worth, but they'll be mine...

This is a wonderful set, attika89. Beside the pens I really love the original Pelikan case.

[attika89]

Thank you everyone! I hope they'll look good in real life too!
I'll post some photos of them when they are here

The Old Style M600 is not a 'Modern Nib' really, but more of an old style nib.

I have blue stripe M600 with an OM nib and it's one of my favourite nibs.

'Modern' Pelikan 18K nibs are like the nails in the M800.

I got this little Pelikan 120 not long ago, a school pen, as far as i know.

Very nice - and the line variation is purely from flex or is the BB nib a bit "stubby"
