Lamy Vista Video Script

This is the Lamy Vista fountain pen. The pen comes in a black cardboard box. It has small slits or grooves where you can see . . . it's cut through, you can see the interior of the box. It also has the Lamy logo printed on the side of the box in a gray color. And then of course we have the Lamy Vista fountain pen. Also included with the pen is the warranty policy for the Lamy Vista.

The Lamy Vista is the clear demonstrator version of the Lamy Safari. So it has the same shape and designs of a Lamy Safari. The bottom of the barrel of the pen, you can see the Lamy logo, it's printed in a silver color. And at the end of the barrel of the pen, you can see the shape. It has these flattened edges on both sides of the pen that runs all the way down to where there's a couple grooves cut on both sides of the pen. Basically, an ink viewing window to see the cartridge ink level inside the pen. This is a cartridge converter style pen, so you can see inside there's an ink cartridge included with the pen, one of the Lamy cartridges. There's also a small cardboard band here that says, "Remove." So it's just on there to keep the cartridge from being punctured.

Then the pen has the traditional Safari style clip. It's a chrome colored clip, nice large clip, makes it easy to get into your pocket. And on top of the cap is a cross-shaped medallion that's black plastic. The cap on the Lamy Vista is compression fit. So it snaps off and can be posted on the pen. It has a clear grip section. This pen has the same ergonomic grip as the Safari fountain pen. You can see there's some small grooves cut on the sides to make it easier to hold. You can also see through to see the feed inside that grip section of the pen.

The Lamy Vista comes with a stainless steel nib. One of the nice features of the Lamy Vista is these nibs slide off really easily. You can change it to a different size nib without much trouble. The nibs aren't too expensive.

Here's the Lamy Vista cartridge I was referring to. So you would remove the small cardboard band which would allow you to insert the cartridge and screw the barrel back on. If that cartridge is there, it prevents that cartridge from being punctured.

The Lamy Vista is a great looking fountain pen. Really basic, simple design. One of the great starter pens. Get your Lamy Vista fountain pen at PenChalet.com!

I used this pen with my Robert Oster Shimmy & Shake Rose Gold Antigua ink. I think because the ink is a sheen/shimmer, it caused the nib to clog as I had more than 7 hard starts writing a letter on Clairfontaine paper. However, I emptied the ink and put in my Diamine Ancient Copper and it did not seem to have any issues. It did have one hard start and with the broad nib, I found this surprising. However, the nib just looking at it is more of, to me, more of the size of a M or even F nib when held up to other nibs. I am going to order a replacement nib if they carry one in stub.

I inked this pen up today with Robert Oster Shake & Shimmy Rose Gold Antigua and love the nib. It was my 1st broad nib and I am now wondering why I use F! It writes beautifully and is not a heavy pen. I cannot wait to use more shimmering inks in this pen.

A nice Lamy demonstrator.

I did have a tiny issue where one of the little slots that the converter fits into had a tiny extra bit of plastic where there shouldn't have been an extra bit. A quick moment to clean it out was all that was needed. Just a bit surprised I encountered that on a Lamy.

Excellent Fountain Pen. This is my second purchase in a month or so. Returning to using a fountain pen as I did as a youngster in the 50s& 60s. I especially like the design, which makes it very easy and comfortable/firm grip.

Great pen for the price. I got an extra fine and it is smooth and has the line width of more on the fine side. Can't beat a Lamy for the price

Looks nice. Feels good. Solidly made. Can't ask for much more in a basic workhorse pen, especially for folks new to FPs.
