Full Version: MB Scenium BP/RB

Any opinions ? Do they still sell it ? Can the ball pen be converted to a roller ball ?

Thanks

Several sites still have them online. The pen is very thin, too thin for my taste. It writes smoothly enough though. Also has an odd turn push catch for retracting the point. Which keeps the BP from being extended accidently I guess. Not sure if you can convert them.

Odd, I had the BP and I didn't notice any sort of locking mechanism. It was just a push cap pen. The RB/Fineliner was interesting, had kind of the Bic pen format I thought.

Mine you have to press down the upper part and turn. I just checked it to be sure. I dont think it's faulty, seems designed to do this.

That is interesting, mine was definately just cap activated, I used to extend and retract it while I was thinking, something soothing about it.

That is strange. blink.gif

Simply the worst piece of junk ever manufactured ! It's now worthless collection of scratches. It still can be found, but Montblanc took this product out of the market.

Stay away this pen!

Actually I liked my BP pen.

I lost my BP. It was too skinny, but I liked it as the designated other-people-could-use-it-while-I-hovered-nearby pen.

So I have the RB, which has a cap. It's all right. I'm not crazy about MB's rollerball refills. But I like this pen. I like having this pen. I don't use it much.
