After seeing KrazyIvan's great review of his black Lamy Studio I decided to get the "to be discontinued" Matt Blue Studio from PilotfishPens in UK.
Then I saw a White Pearl LE Studio in The UltimatePen in Sydney and had to get it despite the cost.
It was a real shock to discover that the bloody great box it came in was 19x19x9.5cm! Panic, how was I going to sneak that into the house past Mrs Bogon's security surveillance; luckily she was working late that day. When she came home I told her about the pen and its price to be met with silence and that cold stare only your wife can give you. She has now calmed down and thinks the grip is a little too slippery...sounds like a good idea to try the brushed steel Studio.

As you can see you're paying for a lot of packaging, outter white cardboard, then a big black cardboard box and finally a faux leather box with a bottle of Lamy Black ink. A Z26 converter is included.

The pen itself has a glossy white lacquer with silvery sparkles somewhat like the finish on some cars. The nib is an EF with a 14K gold section.
