This is all-new Premier Special Edition Black. Apparently all-black is in style this year. I was very impressed when our Parker rep showed us the samples of these pens. The vertical brushed finish reminds me of a Lamy 2000, while the all black style is reminiscent of the Monteverde Invincia Stealth or the Retro 51 Stealth Tornado. Yes, that is an all-black, 18k solid gold nib that is plated with Ruthenium.
These will be available at Goldspot.com for pre-order within the next week or so. We expect to have the inventory by late September.
