After thinking at first I hadnt emailed The Writing Desk quickly enough after they announced the release, then getting an email to confirm I had been allocated one, I collected mine from the delivery office yesterday. Its number 933.

 

It is an extravagance, and Im having to sell some other pens to cover the cost (particularly as I also have college fees to pay that take priority over frivolous items!) But! Its beautiful, and I think it may have sated my modern pen needs!

Is the pen serialised? Or is the numbering on the box?

I put a few more photos in a recent post on my blog. I was surprised at how big the box is and how thick the notebook is, but the pen itself is very nice, and the EF nib is a joy to use. It's made me fall in love with the 2000 all over again.

I checked my email before I left work, drove 15 minutes to work, had an email from Fontoplumo saying the Lamy bauhaus was back in stock. But the pens were sold out in that 15 minute time frame it took me to get to work. :bawl:

Oh, wow! I was away for a few weeks and didn't get to see any pictures until now. Stunning!

Too bad I don't like the L2K. I wish they would make a similar CP1.

Mine arrived today from Sakura Pen Gallery in Belgium, lovely packaged along with two chocolate bars.

It is a very nice pen indeed and the notebook is impressive.

After seeing all the pics on Reddit and Instagram, I'm starting to regret that I passed on my Goulet drawing. I just have a hard time justifying paying more than double over the regular black 2000...hopefully, down the road they'll pop up on eBay for reasonable prices or Lamy will introduce it as a regular color like they did with the Bluegreen Al-Stars.

Im hoping for the same; cheaper price blue lamy 2000 on ebay.

 

When the black Amber was released it was also obscenely priced. I lucked out and got one off ebay for a price equivalent to stainless steel lamy 2000. That was a good catch.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
