What Pen Are You Waiting For 2019

[mallymal1]

A black Stephens lever filler No 270.

 

[Caplak]

I'm waiting for black Pilot 3A EF.

[AndyLogan]

A Montblanc James Dean in OBB.

[Pentode]

An Aurora 88P.

Auction site impulse buy.

[mallymal1]

Two Penbbs 471 pocket pens, the Piggy and the Fireworks, both with M nibs. I presume these are to celebrate the Chinese New year.

 

Also one of the 323 aluminium pens, in silver, with a medium nib.

My aluminum 323 just arrived. Beautiful mocha brown. The material is almost but not quite slippery. It's also notably heftier than the acrylic 323s and the balance is in the exact middle of the body.

Good to hear about the 'feel' of the 323, TruthPil.

 

I was tempted by the Mocha. Maybe another time.

Platinum #3776 Chartres Blue with SF nib - use to have the medium nib and didn't love it but I was really drawn to this one.

It helped that it was at a great price too...

[MichalK]

Finally - Pelikam M815 metal striped! Arriving tursday, hopefully

It really looks nice, if you want a pen that looks like metallic hot chocolate haha. The anodizing is perfect and the pen has decent heft (31.4g with full converter). They aren't selling quickly, so I'm sure they will be available for a long time.

I've just seen that the RM option is down to three.

Waiting for:

Kaco Edge

JinHao x750 - sparkling sands

Baoer 388 - silver / gold

[FOUR X FOUR]

Sailor King of Pen. SE. Gold trim. Broad nib.

 

I have it now. Id post a pic but Im still having difficulty trying to figure out the new way. I like this pen more than my 149.

[Nurmister]

Currently waiting on a once-inked Pelikan M1000, green-striped with a fine nib.

 

I hope it does not disappoint -- my foray into Sailors was an expensive mistake. Not one suits my hand.

[mallymal1]

A green pearl Conway Stewart 266 button filler.

[Says]

A Montblanc James Dean in OBB.

wow Andy, I was looking at that too... please do tell how it goes..

[inkstainedruth]

Monteverde One Touch in copper. Since it'll be my first Monteverde, does that mean for me it's the full Monte?

 

I dunno. I don't think you look much like Robert Carlyle....

[squidsquirtink]

Here's my list:

 

I've yet to get a Montblanc for myself.

 

I was close to getting a Montblanc 146 and last minute turned towards the M805 Stresemann. Now the M1005 Stresemann is on my list.

 

Similarly, I was close to getting a Montblanc 149 and again got the Sailor KoP Ebonite instead.

 

I love TWSBIs and naturally the 580 Emerald is on my list.

 

Maybe a Pilot or Sailor with music nib.

 

 

[City74]

Just ordered a Sailor Pro Gear slim with a music nib. Can’t wait to try it out
