I am selling this very first special edition Pelikan pen, it is the M800 fountain pen nicknamed "Green Ocean" fountain pen from the 90's. The pen's nib (class M for Medium) is made from 18 carat solid gold. The pen appears to be unused, and the fountain pen contains a piston filler mechanism. "Pelikan is well known for their regularly released limited edition fountain pens in addition to their standard line-up. There have been many limited edition releases over the years and I thought that it might be interesting to look back at what is considered to be the very first of these modern releases from Pelikan. The details surrounding this model have caused some confusion over the years which I hope to dispel by the end of this post. Which model launched such a distinguished tradition of releases? The answer is none other than the highly sought after M800 transparent green demonstrator. Affectionately referred to as the “Green Ocean,” it is the predecessor to the highly successful M800 Blue Ocean released as a run of 5000 fountain pens in 1993." (ThePelikanPerch) This pen was from the earliest batch, signalled by "W-Germany" on the cap ring, which means it was made in West-Germany. The later version was labelled just "Germany". This auction will be started without a reserve price, please examine the photos before bidding.
