Lamy 2000 \"Black Amber\" 50th Anniversary Limited Edition – #3649 of 5000 – 14k Fine Nib – Complete with Display Case, Lamy Blue Ink & Polishing Cloth
A true milestone pen: the Lamy 2000 Black Amber, released in 2016 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Lamy 2000 — Gerd A. Müller\'s 1966 Bauhaus masterpiece that many consider one of the finest fountain pen designs ever made. Limited to just 5,000 individually numbered pieces worldwide, the Black Amber holds a special place in the brand\'s history as Lamy\'s first-ever numbered limited edition. This is pen No. 3649/5000, with the edition number engraved on the pen and a subtle \"50\" marking the anniversary — understated, exactly as Lamy intended.
What makes the Black Amber special:
Built on the stainless steel Lamy 2000M body, the Black Amber wears a unique galvanized coating with a smooth matte-satin finish found on no other Lamy 2000 — and it\'s a chameleon. Depending on the light, the pen shifts from deep charcoal grey to warm brown to a champagne-gold glow. Product photos never did it justice; in hand, it\'s genuinely beautiful, with a silky, premium feel and satisfying heft that sets it apart from the standard Makrolon model.
Under the hood, it\'s everything that made the 2000 a legend: platinum-coated 14k gold nib (Fine — a smooth, wet, precise writer), Lamy\'s excellent piston-filling system, the iconic hooded-nib profile, and the spring-loaded solid clip. A design from 1966 that still looks like the future.
Included — the complete anniversary presentation:
- Lamy 2000 Black Amber fountain pen, 14k Fine nib, numbered 3649/5000
- Original anniversary display/presentation case
- Bottle of Lamy blue ink
- Polishing cloth
Condition:
Great condition — the distinctive Black Amber coating, nib, and clip all present beautifully, and the piston operates smoothly. In the spirit of full transparency: there are a few micro-scratches on the cap, visible only under close inspection and honestly hard to capture on camera but I have two photos in the pool that illustrate this. They\'re insignificant in hand and don\'t detract from the pen\'s stunning light-shifting finish, but you deserve to know exactly what you\'re getting. See photos for the exact pen and complete presentation set.
