I'm generally puzzled why Lamy (although clearly with a distinctive design and marketing up the wazoo) gets so much attention. Maybe it's just a taste thing.
Give me this stylish, classic look for $19 from Pilot any day: https://www.amazon.com/Pilot-Metropolitan-Collection-Fountai...
I have 2 of them, they are great. Solid metal, sleek construction.
Start with either Lamy Safary [0] or Pilot Metropolitan [1].
If you like smooth, go with Medium nib, and if you like some feedback, go with Fine, as I said.
Writing on decent paper (not always the expensive one) with a decent medium nib pen is something everyone needs to try at least once.
