Lamy New Editions for 2024.

[jchch1950]

Lamy has brought out new colours in many of their models every year. Some of them are new and others are reissues and they attract the attention of part of the penlovers community and collectors. Has anyone news about the new issues?

Far too early. You'll have to wait for end of February at least.

I'm on a Lamy Safari 'jag' - can't wait 'til February to see what the next LE is! Well, guess I'll have to wait, but it's difficult🤨

Oh dear,

 

what a mess!

 

hope these aren’t the new editions we look forward to!

I liked the barrel colors but the grip and the barrel do not seem to match. 

[Astronymus]

I think they just combined the pens for the picture.

[Baka1969]

I wouldn't mind it.

I'd have to see images of both pens (including the caps), before making a decision.  But did rather like the color of the section on the pen in the link.

This is the print alongside the photos: Classic safari design fountain pen with a sharp new colour scheme. 

I'll pass on this one.

The  Lamy Safari for 2024 is a new proposal that the company has never offered. Some editions like the one for the US had different colours for the barrel, cap and sections to reflect the colours of the American flag but I think 2024 is a new road for the annual editions.

Well, why not go the whole hog and bring out a range of mix and match.

the nibs are easily transferable , so choice your nib, bottom section and barrel separately.

 

 

[Astronymus]

Obviously those pens are really a mixed bunch. THere are pictures out there.

Fail. Ugly as hell. The remaining stocks were probably clumped together.

Mix yer own and save a $£€ or thirty.

I'll have to see these color combinations in-person before I can decide.

If I remember correctly I saw a Kaweco stand, in a department store that offered your choice of colour of the section, barrel and cap, as well as nib and box.

The first photos that I saw were poor quality and didn’t show the colors clearly.  I will like to see more.

Yes, especially the photo posted here that doesn't show the entire pen, just the grip section and a small bit of the barrel.  I think it's really important to see them taken as a whole.
