    Default Purely speculative “next m101n” question

    Hey y’all,

    So, I’ve been thinking what would be cool as a next SE, and my vote would be for a grey Stresemann m101n. Maybe too close to the grey-blue, but SO cool. Any other thoughts?

    And if anybody wants to have a go at photoshopping one, that would be awesome 😊

    Cheers,

    Ralf

    Just produce more tortoise with brown, and offer nibs that "feel" vintage.

    Yes, the tortoise are gorgeous. I've found the 101 nibs to feel more vintage than the regular Pelikan nibs, even offering a little variation out of the box. A real 1950s semi-flex would be cool, though!

    the replica of a 100NT (Toledo) would be cool.

    I still fancy the idea of a repeated green jade model.

    I do like both these ideas too! I've always liked the look of the Toledo but never handled one. The 900 series seem like they might be big and heavy, but they show off the metalwork a little better than the 700 series, perhaps? A jade "original" was a pen I lusted after for a long time, but prices didn't go through the post-release dip-- they started high and kept climbing. Thanks for the ideas! :-)
