Review Title: Another beautiful pen from Pelikan.

The combination of the gloss black, gray/black body and silver makes this pen strikingly beautiful in addition to being a wonderful writing pen. I recommend always choosing the “smooth and tune” option.

Pelikan pens and Appelboom’s legendary customer service, a great combination.

Review Title: Great Pen and Stellar Service

I am very pleased both with the pen and Appelboom's stellar service. First, with regard to the pen, I was pleasantly surprised both with how the pen writes and looks. I wasn't sure if I would like the dark grey color, but it looks striking against the silver (Palladium coated?) trim and is also iridescent when you look at the pen closely. Secondly, the Stresemann M605 writes smoothly with a little feedback. I actually had requested the complimentary customization (tune and smooth) offered by Appelboom with a request also for nib specialist Anabelle Hiller (Ana) to do the work, and I had requested that the pen have some feedback. Ana did a superlative job! Finally, I commend Appelboom owner Joost Appelboom for his quick and detailed responses to all my questions prior to making my purchase. This personal service truly impressed me.

Review Title: A beautiful pen !

This is a beautiful fountain pen, that will survive long into the future - my mother was given a similar pen on her graduation and it is still in good working order now ! The pen is a little smaller than i expected, but fits in the hand well. Very elegant design.

Review Title: Werkelijk perfect!

Ik was al bekend met de M200/400 en de M800-series van Pelikan. Tijdens de Pelikan Hub mocht ik een M600 proberen van iemand en toen wist ik zeker dat ik die ook aan mijn verzameling wilde toevoegen. Een week later bood Appelboom de pen met een mooie korting aan in verband met Black Friday en sloeg ik mijn slag.

Deze Stresemann is werkelijk perfect. Prachtig in al zijn eenvoud met een semi-doorzichtige barrel. De palladium afgewerkte details zijn perfect op elkaar afgestemd. De rhodium nib maakt het helemaal af.

Uiteraard schrijft deze pen zoals een Pelikan hoort te schrijven. Smooth met een kleine feedback. Ik houd ervan.

My favorit size in the Pelikan Souverän series is the M805, as I always have on my desk when I work.
To bring with me, when I am at meetings or to have in my jacket pocket etc, I needed a just little bit smaller pen. This one is perfekt for that purpose.
I have now bought some pens from Appelboom, and also used them for service etc for my older pens, and I am always very satisfied after my contact with this comapny and by Joost. Fast deliveries and very professional in every thing they do.
I highly recommend them.

Review Title: Another Excellent Pelikan Pen

This is a terrific pen. I have several Pelikan pens in various price ranges. The M605 Stresemann lives up to the Pelikan standard. Handsome design, well made, and writes beautifully. And Appelboom's price was very good.
