New Model Tease For 2015

[sargetalon]

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.

[Tadeusz]

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.

I'm hoping for a tortoise as well. A brown tortoise M400 would make a perfect match for my white one!

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

I'm hoping for a "sunlight" style raden M600... in the $400 price range.

 

I expect I'll be disappointed.

[bizhe]

They're due for a tortoise m600.

[erpe]

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

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

[debraji]

I'd vote for a brown tortoise m600, too.

[camoandconcrete]

My hope is for a new version of the 400NNs. But I doubt that pen will be resurrected anytime soon.

[DrCodfish]

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.

It's past midnight where I am. You can tell us now.

[Peine11]

M405 black phc?

 

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

From Pelikan's Facebook page:

 

"Next year the "Stresemann" is going to be presented in a classic anthracite. "

 

[PabloAU]

Well that was uneventful. I suppose saving money is a good thing...

[cellardoor04]

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 )

[alarickc]

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.

[branman1986]

I love it, I think I'm going to have to start saving up

[sargetalon]

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.
