Metal or Makrolon? If it is metal, then

Looking forward to seeing it!

Is makrolon not 'good' for some objective reason or is that just a preference? The reason I ask is cos I recently passed on a mint macrolon 2000 for half retail price and have been kinda regretting it!

I just prefer the heft of the metal L2K. The makrolon is used far less than the metal.

OTOH, the paint finish would look better on metal.

Hopefully, they will not keep postponing like the Pelikan M1000 Stresemann or even worse, quietly drop it.

Im the reverse! I use my makrolon one far more often, although the balance of the steel 2000 is lovely, the weight is more than I like for anything beyond a quick note.

 

Also the cost is lower. So Im hoping for makrolon.

As I don't post, I prefer the heft of the metal barrel. It is the same reason I like the Dialog 3.

 

I have a feeling you might get your wish since makrolon far outnumbers metal.

A blueblack Lamy 200 should be pretty. I imagine it somewhat like the Noto in blue color with silver tip (nightblue I think is the official name).

Lovely and quite possible, perhaps an L2K Imperial Blue.

Dang, and I just pronounced myself done!

Aha, I've been waiting for this announcement after reading

 

"AND, get this, the LAMY 2000 will ALSO be coming out in a new color in 2019, but the actual color was not revealed to me"

Obviously no pics yet...

The red and blue Aion pens are really quite "bright" - a little too much so for my taste - so I'd be hoping this is a darker shade. Though if I don't like the colour, I'm less likely to be tempted, I suppose!

IMO, it will be 'dull' if on makrolon and 'bright' if on metal.

Both versions would be ideal, even though I still favour metal.

I'm still waiting for a red Lamy 2000... at an affordable price.

There you go!

 

If you are going to make the "Special" non-black, then make it really non-black!

 

None of this Blue (almost black) or Green (almost black).

If you want "almost black" just buy a regular black, save yourself the cost of a "Special Edition" and just claim that you can see whatever color you want it to be when you hold it up to the light.

Hopefully, more colours will follow should the blue make a successful debut.
