I periodically see references to a Montblanc 147, but I've never seen this pen. How large a pen is it? The numbering scheme implies that it would be larger than a 146 and smaller than a 149, but I've also heard that the 149 is the only Montblanc that is larger than a 146. Anybody know the answer?

It's exactly the same size as the 146.

The 146 & 147 are indentical in dimensions. The 147 is know as the "traveller" and comes in a leather carry case with spare mini cartridges as this pen only accepts them & cannot accomodate a convertor.

The 147 does not have an ink window like the 146.

I have both and if you require any further details please let me know.
