New Model Tease For 2015

Looks like Pelikan has cooked up a new model for 2015. They posted the following picture and caption to their Pelikan International Facebook page earlier today;

"2015 a classic is going to be reinterpreted. What do you think, what model could it be? The solution is going to be presented on Monday ;-)"

 

Here is a link to the FB post; http://goo.gl/S9JiYG

 

Any thoughts on a reimagined classic? I think the red cup on the tray is a clue. This may be something akin to what the M101N is to the 101. Any guesses? For what it's worth, and I hope that I'm wrong, my guess is for a P400 cartridge filled Souverän.

I hope you're wrong, too... Something a little more exciting than a cartridge Souveran would certainly be appreciated. A tortoise M400 re-release would be nice.

I'm hoping for a more affordable Souverän-style model that harkens back to the less-blingy days of the vintage 400.

One without gold trim rings at every possible location. Just a pen, not a "fashion accessory" is what I want!

 

But I think that my idea may be a bit far fetched. I fear that it will be a cartridge filler as the OP mentioned.

At least it will be revealed in just 1 day. Just one more day to wait.

I'm more of a hoper than a guesser so I go for a tortoise shell Pelikano with 14k nib under $50 :D

It's early, some more dreaming to do....

I agree that the red cup may be a clue. I'd like to see a M600 tortoise, but for some reason the middle child just does not get the love from the company so I won't be surprised if it is a red something else, but the language suggesting a reinterpretation of a classic leaves me clueless.

M405 black phc?

 

No that's out already. Hmm. The background is similar to the black silver M1005 studio shot...

Ah, I love it!!! I definitely will get one of these, in M600 or M800 size. Far more attractive to me than the current colours (tortoises excepted, of course :lol: )

I kinda have to agree with nyx_h here. Of the current non-tortoise versions I find this by far the most appealing. I'm still more excited by the rumored pink tortoise, but I might get one of these in either the either the M600 or M800 if I can swing it on top off a yellow Toledo M910.

I think its a nice looking pen. At least I now get the reinterpreting a classic reference. I will probably pick one up based on that photo.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
