What Was Your First Lamy?

[smackyf]

As everybody has said before, same here. My first Lamy was a Charcoal Safari with a Fine Nib, what a lovely pen.

Such a workhouse, I still use it to this day, hmm..

Also my first fountain pen and my introduction to Lamy. Very reliable and still use it often too. Has led to several more Lamy purchases as well.

An Al Star. Still my only Lamy, have considered getting another though at some point.

As many users worldwide my first fountain pen was a Safari. Well, in this case a Vista.

Lamy Safari in black. My first Lamy and my first fountain pen.

Another charcoal safari with a medium nib. Also my first ever proper fp.

I tried out a Safari as my first Lamy. I didn't like the grip. Which is strange because I DO like the grip on the Sheaffer Prelude. In any case, I ended up giving the Safari away and avoiding Lamy for quite a time.

 

Then I discovered the studio and the 2000. I also have the 2000 ballpoint and pencil. Oh how quickly we get sucked in.

My first was a Lamy Safari in Ocean Blue, then my wife got one and my daughter got one, just got worse from there! lol

[Wraith]

A Ruby Red Al-Star. Also my first FP since the Parker Vector in high school.

Lamy Accent Brilliant, striped version.

 

Love that gold nib, super smooth.

My first Lamy was a 25-30, bought on a flea market in 2011. It has a gold EF nib and is piston-filled. The nib was bended and I suppose it was standing on the vendor's desk for centuries. After a quick cleaning and nib straightening (one of the first repairs I made), is now one of my favorites.

I have a Vista and a Safari so it must have been one of those!

[shoryupen]

Vista. A real workhorse.

Al-Star, great workhorse! I have 7 of them now.

[HollyGolightly]

I got my vista and safari on the same day, so either/both! Though I think I favor the vista.

My first Lamy was almost my first fountain pen, a Lamy 200 with EF nib. It's been in my pocket since late 2013.

My first ever Lamy was a Savannah Green safari with my name engraved on the barrel. It was a gift from my dad, who was a fountain pen enthusiast himself. I used it for note making, assignments (yes we could submit handwritten assignments in my day!) and exams. I have lost the pen now but have bought more Safaris in memory of my dad whom I miss so much!
