    Please tell me that they will migrate that color combo to the smaller models if I just have patience

    It is scheduled to migrate two weeks after you lose patience.

    I hope they bring this to the 600 and 400 lines as well. The 800 is just too heavy for my dainty little lady hands, and the cost is was more than I want to pay. But this is just classy, classy, classy looking. Would love one in the 400 size! (perfect size pen, perfect)

    Current pen rotation: way too many!

    If there's enough demand I'm sure this colour will be available in smaller sizes, just don't hold your breath cos Pelikan is notorious for keeping the suspense for too long. I initially thought this was gonna be in M400 size, it'd be nice to pair with my grey 400. Old and new. Close, but no cigar for Tony. I've also wanted the WE Balzac but I wasn't quite sure about its tapered piston grip ("blind" cap), so I'm glad this colour came along.

    I'll update the pics as soon as I got one in February. I thought I was gonna keep all these infos for myself, but I kept thinking of my fellow FPGeeks

    I would love to see it in the 600 size, but I'd also be okay with the 400 size. It's a lovely, elegant color. Would be perfect with Herbin Stormy Grey or Diamine Silver Fox…

    That is pure class. However I want a blue pen so the m805 is on my to buy list but if your looking for a pen that isn't plain black, look no further

    The newer M805 blue will come with monotone Rhodium nibs. Unless you can get a bargain on the older bitone nib, I'd wait if I were you..

    Me too, but sorry mate.. they are only available in EF, F, M, B. Or through special order S nib..

    I'm gonna use this one as a jotter, so I ordered the EF..

    Change of plan. I am getting an F instead. Anything other than F or M would have to wait for the second batch. Personally, I really don't care about point sizes anymore, so F it is.

    I received the UPS tracking number from Pilar of IguanaSell last evening. It should be here next week, I'll post a pic or two by then. Cheers.

    On the web site it's not under SE, so it's standard colour. The availability of the RB and BP pretty much confirms it as well.http://www.pelikan.com/pulse/Pulsar/...805-stresemann

    I'm absolutely getting one of these. I love the single tone rhodium nib and may pick up an extra nib for my blue M805. I wouldn't be that heart broken if this didnt come to the smaller sizes. They seem to get all the fun colors anyway.

    Not sure if I misread but that nib on a blue M805 and just take my money. It's amazing.

    If you wanted a subtle pen but not plain this is just the ideal pen and the 800 size is perfect
