Lamy Dialog CC Dark Blue
The Lamy Dialog CC Dark Blue combines a sleek contemporary appearance with the superb craftsmanship and writing qualities for which Lamy is known. The 14k solid gold nib unit is provided in four different tipping sizes and is plated in two-tone rose gold and platinum.
This pen qualifies for our complimentary nib tuning services, which adjust ink flow and pressure to your personal preferences. Lamy 14k solid gold nibs also provide excellent starting points for many of our unique nib customizations.
Building upon the success of the popular Dialog 3, the Lamy Dialog CC is a capless fountain pen with a sophisticated and innovative design. The unique twist mechanism extends and retracts the nib, while an end plate and anti-roll top add to both the functionality and styling of this superbly engineered writing instrument.
Combining the writing qualities of a fountain pen with an ease of use usually only available in ballpoints, this is the perfect writing instrument for doctors, technicians, contractors, or just anybody with an on-the-go lifestyle. Lamy's convenient cartridge-converter fill system allows for the use of Lamy brand disposable ink cartridges, and the pen can also be filled with bottled fountain pen ink when utilizing the provided converter. We are an authorized Lamy dealer.

Customization Guide
Stub
|
Above is the same size nib after a regrind to Stub. A regrind to Stub is often a good place to start for your first customization. A Stub nib provides broad down-strokes and narrow cross-strokes while writing, and is less position-sensitive on the paper than the crisper and slightly more demanding cursive italic.
|
Cursive Italic
|
More demanding, but also providing crisper edges and more line-width variation, is the very popular customization to Cursive Italic. This also provides broad down-strokes and narrow cross-strokes, but is also more position-sensitive in terms of how the pen is held and requires more skill on the part of the user. This is a common customization for artists and calligraphers, but is still smooth enough to make for a good everyday writer.
|
Formal Italic
 |
Formal Italic is an even crisper and more demanding customization than either cursive italic or left oblique, and is usually utilized for calligraphy and by the most experienced users. This provides broad down-strokes and narrow cross-strokes, with even crisper corners and edges than a cursive italic - this is an extremely position-sensitive customization.
|
Left Oblique
 |
Commonly used for signatures and correspondence, the Left Oblique customization provides broad diagonal strokes and narrow cross-strokes, and like a cursive italic, is more position-sensitive and demanding than a stub. The whole pen must be rotated to the left in order to write smoothly, without skipping. The "Left" in Left Oblique refers to the cut of the nib itself, and does not refer to the handedness of the writer. |
Architect's Point (Also for Arabic and Hebraic writing)
 |
A more exotic regrind is that to Architect’s Point. Named after the style of writing used by Frank Lloyd Wright, this regrind is the opposite of cursive italic, and provides for broad cross-strokes and narrow down-strokes. This also tends to be a particularly useful customization for those practicing Arabic or Hebraic calligraphy. |
Spencerian
 |
Perhaps our most popular customization, but also one of the most advanced, the Mottishaw Spencerian Customization has gained special attention from being featured in a customer's YouTube video which has now received over twelve million views! The Spencerian starts from a semi-soft 14k nib and adds additional flex and a regrind to needlepoint to create a specialized writing point used for copperplate calligraphy.
