Is the Sheaffer's Legacy you want a touch-down model?Originally Posted by caleath
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Right now, another Platinum 3776 Century, in Chartres blue this time, with an SF nib; a Pilot Custom 74 with an F nib; a Pilot Falcon resin or a Pilot vanishing point with a John Mottishaw stub
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Eversharp Doric adjustable, or a nice Gold Seal in Coral.
One of the long list of Nakayas I have my eyes on.
Edison Beaumatic.
The M800 Brown Tortoise and the Delta Blue Jay are just not going to happen, they'll run out before I have a chance to get them.
"What are moon-letters?" asked the hobbit full of excitement. He loved maps, as I have told you before; and he also loved runes and letters, and cunning handwriting, though when he wrote himself it was a bit thin and spidery.

Yep the come with a converter thing that lets you either go touchdown, ctg or ctg converter.

For me something that does not exist...an M800 Lizard in blue with Silver trim....Dreams

That would be awesome! Email pelikan with the idea. Maybe they might do it some day.For me something that does not exist...an M800 Lizard in blue with Silver trim....Dreams
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
I am not likely to be able to afford a Waterman number 7 ripple with a blue nib any time soon...

Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Why did you have to do that !
These old Ripples make the Perspective I wanted seem ordinary & the range of coloured nibs fascinating along the keyhole breather.

A non existant Pelikan M101M Tortoise with pale blue grip & cap like the M640 EternalIce http://www.nibs.com/PelikanM640EternalIce.html
with Australian Opal striations and silver hardware.
To end up with a lighter version of the Pelikan Maki-e Raden Sunlight.

You had better put a bid in for that before Eric sees the FPG crown on the band and buys it..

Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Some sort of Edison pen, perhaps a Parker Duofold (if people would stop sniping me at the last second on ebay this wouldn't be on the list) and perhaps a Sheaffer Targa, but I haven't made up my mind about that one yet.
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
What a beauty!

Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Yes.
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
I have a Platinum 3776 Century in red wine color from John Mottishaw. It's a beauty, so does the Chartres blue. I am very tempted in getting one as well. They are now offered at very good price on ebay. But at the moment, my priorities are Pelikan M620 Berlin and Stockholm.
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
I would like an MB 145 in sterling silver pinstripe with a BB nib.
Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Yes I have the red one, too. And a few other pen people here have the Chartres blue and it's just as gorgeous. I figured I'd get another one so my Bourgogne doesn't get lonely.I have a Platinum 3776 Century in red wine color from John Mottishaw. It's a beauty, so does the Chartres blue.

Re: What Pens Are At The Top of Your Want List?
Well, I'm keeping it to what I can afford right now. One is vintage and one modern:
Parker Vacumatic Blue (not sure whether I want the F or M nib)
Franklin-Christoph Model 65 (or 66, depending on which size feels better) and I haven't decided on the nib yet.
