Heinkle Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 This is the best-looking Duofold Centennial Parker have produced for a while... apart from maybe the current Big Red model. Will be nice to see a return to three distinct rings on the cap. Link to post Share on other sites
lionelc Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 have to admit it's hard to resist the lapis - will have to grit my teeth and see how the new parker 51 pans out, can only take one thing for the team at a time. Link to post Share on other sites

I hear that! The funny thing about Parker is that they are terrible at trailing upcoming products - nothing on their website, Twitter or Instagram. Link to post Share on other sites
mitto Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 I would rather buy a couple dozen more 51s for that price. Khan M. Ilyas Link to post Share on other sites
Kalessin Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 > But when is another iconic pen going to have another hundred year anniversary? Montblanc comes up with anniversary pens from time to time. I think the 100th anniversary of the Meisterstuck pens is right around the corner in 2024, and they'll probably do a special 149 for the occasion. -- Joel -- "I collect expensive and time-consuming hobbies."

Heinkle Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Was thinking the 100th anniversary Big Red model reminds me of the Akkerman Centennial produced in limited numbers in 2010. Link to post Share on other sites
