Dialog 3 Palladium/chrome Discontinued

[sentience]

Any LAMY fans who, like me, have been waiting to buy a Dialog 3 may wish to get a move on if the Chrome finish appeals to you. I was just told by Iguana Sell that, when they checked with their supplier today, they were informed this model is discontinued and no longer available.

I managed to find one still in stock at Appelboom.

The Matte Black, Piano Black, and Piano White finishes are still available.

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Not discontinued but temporarily out of stock. See reply by Appelboom further down.

Isn't that Palladium?

I've seen it advertised the finish as Chrome and Palladium in different places. The LAMY site does seem to call it Palladium.

You are misinformed, it is not discontinued.

 

Lamy switched from supplier for their Palladium finishes (both the Studio and the Dialog 3). Therefore the pen will not be available untill the end of the year.

 

In 2019 they expect new stock.

I have two Dialog 3 palladium. As far as I know, they are not discontinued.

Interesting. This finish is iconic for Lamy

Thank you Appelboom! Good to get the full story. Wish I could update my original post, but the edit window has expired.

True, only on the Dialog 3 and Studio IIRC.

It is the best option on the Dialog, complements the 14K nib.

Is the Palladium finish available right now? It's already the end of February 2019.

Sorry for a late answer

 

It is still offered on the website of La Couronne du Comte in the Netherlands.

I heard that the Palladium finish Studio will be available again ca. Mid-April

and The Writing Desk in the UK.

Cult pens are awaiting stock for Studio and D3 palladium finishes.

 

I think that TWD and LCdC still have old stock, unsure if it matters from a QC perspective.
