Lamy Transparent Vista Fountain Pen with Medium Nib and Blue Ink (L12M)

I HAVE FOUR LAMY SAFARI FOUNTAIN PENS. THE QUALITY IS CONSISTANT. THEY HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO BE ERGONOMIC AND THEY TICK ALL THE BOXES. MOST IMPORTANTLY THE NIBS ARE SMOOTH FLOWING AND NO SCRATCHY CONTACT WITH THE PAPER.. GOOD COLOUR CHOICE OF PENS..THE INK CARTRIDGES COME IN A RANGE OF BASIC COLOURS.. ALL GOOD. BEWARE THOUGH THESE PENS ONLY TAKE LAMY CARTRIDGES!!!!! YOU CAN USE OTHER INKS BY BUYING THE Z24 Z28 SUCTION REFILLABLE CARTRIDGE AND FILL IT FROM AN INK BOTTLE...

Excellent pen, delivers next day and worth the money

This is my first Lamy pen, having heard good things about them from my brother and others, and although I've only had it a couple of days so far, I love it. It's a little bit more expensive than fountain pens I've previously owned but feels like a very good quality implement for what is still a very reasonable price. It's comfortable to hold, writes very smoothly and feels like it's built to last. I love the transparent finish too, although since I've opted to use a converter rather than cartridges and the Z28 one I need for this model is bright red and shows clearly through the transparent barrel, I feel that only certain colours of ink would work without clashing! I've started with green ink, which looks great with the red converter (and is one of my favourite colours to write with anyway).

Like other Lamy pens I have owned, for the price this writes superbly. I use this one for drawing (medium nib) using Lamy ink. Cartridges a bit pricey, but Lamy will sell you a refillable one which will ease that pain considerably. Lamy Z24 Ink Cartridge Convertor just make if like me you use it for drawing, that you only use proper fountain pen ink. Drawing it will kill it very quickly.

I have always liked Lamy pens, and the see through version is a real novelty.

Bought for son to replace pen that was knicked at School. He likes these pens as they are good to grip and write well. Unfortunately not cheap pens

The best writing pen I have ever owned. By far.

BRILLIANT PEN - FIGHTING OFF FRIENDS AND FAMILY WHO ALL WANT IT!

スケルトンは、非常に綺麗ですね。 万年筆の構造が見れて、中のインクも見れるので、書いていて気持ちがいいです。 今は、ブルー系のインクを入れて使っています。 もう少ししたら、秋色のインクを入れて使いたいと思います。

Lamy Vista satın almamın sebebi, içerisine koyduğum renkli mürekkebin görünmesi ve birde Lamy nin konvertörlerinin arkasında kırmızı ve siyah renk var, örneğin yeşil mürekkep doldurduğum kalemin könvertörünün en üstteki sihay olan çevirme bölümüne yeşil renkli bant yapıştırdım, şeffaf kalemin içinde yeşil mürekkep ve yeşil konvertör görüntüsü çok güzel oldu, aynı şekilde başka bir tanesine kırmızı mürekkep doldurdum, ancak onun konvertörüde orjinalinden kırmızı olduğu için bant yapıştırmama gerek kalmadı, Kaweco'nun standart konvertörlerinde hemen her renk var, ama Lamy'nin konvertörlerinde şu an için iki renkden fazlası yok diye dert etmeye de gerek yok, yapıştır istediğin renk bantı, oldu işte :)) Ve Lamy'nin konvertörleri Kaweco'ya göre neredeyse yarı fiyat, bence çok iyi. Lamy 12-M dolma kalem ise zaten muşteşem, herkezin zevki rengi farklıdır, benimse kendi tecrübem, her zaman M uç en risksiz en kullanışlı olduğunu değerlendiriyorum, çünkü F uç çoğu zaman zımpara gibi kağıdı deliyor vs. tamam bir çok kalem için kusursuz çalışıyordur F uçlar ama daha fazla kağıt seçer, M ise biraz daha iyi benim için. Dolmakalem sever iseniz, size Lamy'i tavsiye etmeme gerek yok, zaten merakınızı gidermek için çoktan satın almışsınızdır, yada almayı düşünüyorsunuzdur :)

القلم جميل وسلس في الكتابة ولكن من تاريخ الشراء الى الوصول استغرق وقت كبير جدا . تأخير غير مقبول من امازون

I recently purchased the Lamy Safari Pen Vista with a medium tip, and it has quickly become my favorite writing instrument. The design of the pen is sleek and modern, with a transparent body that allows you to see the ink level and inner workings, which adds a unique and stylish touch. The medium tip is perfect for my writing style, offering a smooth and consistent flow of ink that glides effortlessly across the paper. It provides just the right amount of resistance, making writing feel both comfortable and precise. Whether I’m jotting down notes or writing longer documents, the pen performs flawlessly. One of the standout features is the ergonomic grip. The triangular shape is designed to fit naturally in the hand, reducing fatigue during extended writing sessions. This thoughtful design ensures that my hand remains comfortable, even after hours of use. The build quality is exceptional, as expected from Lamy. The materials used are durable, and the pen feels solid without being too heavy. The clip is strong and reliable, making it easy to carry the pen in a pocket or notebook. Refilling the pen is also a breeze, thanks to Lamy’s easy-to-use cartridge system. I appreciate the convenience of being able to quickly swap out ink cartridges, and the variety of available ink colors allows for some customization to match my personal preferences. Overall, the Lamy Safari Pen Vista with a medium tip is an outstanding writing tool. Its combination of sleek design, comfortable grip, and smooth writing experience makes it a pleasure to use daily. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality, reliable pen that stands out from the crowd.

Note: My second Vista from Amazon arrived with dried blue ink in the nib and in the feed. The standard blue ink cartridge was almost empty for some reason. Although the protective cardboard ring was in place. It did not bother me as all that’s needed is to flush the pen with some clean water a few times. These pens are meant to used anyway and not for display or for a private collection. Just a note if you are reading this review. Not all vistas I’ve gotten from Amazon arrive this way. The writing with the pen was unaffected and faultless. I think there is a reason LAMY continues to move a lot of these well made, clear ABS fountain pens for the last decade. I thought it might be your typical everyday plastic Gel or ballpoint pen assembly. However once you hold it, I noticed that there was some weight to it. (Probably from the cap) it’s not heavy for sure. In hand it is comparable to holding any well made Uniball plastic gel pen. On closer inspection, though is where small differences in build quality become more visible. A LAMY made pen for sure. The plastic housing is noticeably thicker than any of your other run of the mill clear rollerball or uniball/Pilot plastic pens. the plastic is optically clear. The shiny chrome cap insert and clean lines makes the pen visually pleasing in a clinical, technical way. For an engineering lab or a workshop it’s absolutely work appropriate. its probably tough too I’ve had it for 3 days and although made of clear ABS, the pen sits well on my working desk. it’s a fountain pen in a tech work environment - yet it doesn’t draw unnecessary attention among my other plastic uniball gel pen and roller balls. Recently added a Fine nib version. So that I can write on lines 70gsm college legal pad without excessive feathering. Paper is important. On standard non fountain pen paper a medium nib looks like a broad. On fountain pen safe paper like Rhodia, Kokuyo, Midori type paper the medium looks like a medium. It’s still smooth to write though. So on a fine nib on common non fountain pen tested paper the lines look like a medium which is ok sometimes. But just good to note. It’s nicer to write with a medium nib on good paper though.
