A M620 Piccadilly Circus with, as added bonus, three ceramic pelicans (the other pens was already in my possession):

The Piccadilly Circus pen is nice looking. Just, well, too rich for my blood at the moment. But what's the pen in the right side of the photo (on the other small pen stand)?

My first Pelikan purchase of 2018 was a M805 Vibrant Blue. I didn't take photos before sending it off to Michael Masuyama to have its B nib ground to cursive italic.

 

Now, I did get a Pelikan M800 back from Shawn Newton with a custom binde. Does that count as "adding to the flock?"

 

.... A bit of nib porn is always in order I believe. This is what I expect to get back on my M805.

David, that's a beautiful custom! Unique, but definitely in keeping with what might be called the "Pelikan aesthetic"... well done. May we ask what the material is? And more pictures, please ​

Thanks, Bill!

 

The material is Conway Stewart Pistachio resin. Here's one more photo:

​Not a new pen but a new binde on a Pelikan M805. Gray Lizard by Shawn Newton, with a Pendelton Brown BLS. I am very pleased with how this turned out.

You guys are killing me here With all the new stuff that is supposed to be released this year, now you've also got me thinking about another custom binde...

 

And how am I EVER going to squeeze a Martele in this year?

Nice! What nib? Good thing there are plenty of those still floating about... always looking for that "one more".

I like Montblanc's as well, my avatar reflects that but MB's have become to expensive of late and I pretty much have what I need. I've been a closet Pelikan watcher for far too long

I recently acquired a pelikan m800 burnt orange. what a beautiful pen although an ink window would have been very nice...ah well you can't have everything.

I started with one pen - just one: the m200 on the left (fine). Then came the 805 Streseman (fine) and the 805 blue and black (fine). Then the 800 black (medium). Now, the 805 black (extra fine).

 

Somebody, stop me, please! It's not even been 3 weeks!
