I wonder if Lamy will bring out another colour in the future, considering the frenzy on the blue.

They could make a habit of it, launching one every few years. biggrin.png

In the end its plastic with a brushed finish, so marks or perceived difference in color is due to an uneven wear of the brushed surface. It happens as well if you use a case with a hard surface in contact with the pen, it produces white patches or scratches in the surface finish...

 

They disappear with use and/or a simple rub with your hands.

 

If its a concern for you, change the pen case!

 

As i have used the pen more often, the color now are more even and the blue gets darker. there are no more spots of uneven surface. i did order a fabric case type but it will only arrived to my place next Jan 2020. in the mean time, the pen is stored in a standard lamy packaging box if im not using it.

I've been looking for one anyone seen one in store, UK or EU based.

Are you saying that you want to find one of the 1919 units produced that's still not sold as yet, but left to sit inside a display window or cabinet, so that you could have a look and feel before you commit to the asking price of that bricks-and-mortar retailer?

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

I still saw two on the display through two different stockists in Germany. Unfortunately both stationers don’t sell their pens online.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      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

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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
