146 Service Nirvana


claudus

Recommended Posts

I am delighted with how Montblanc has serviced first my Boheme last year and now my 146 in gold, which is a decade old. I have what is, in effect, a new pen for £39. The blind cap was pretty loose and the flow was impaired and it looked rather grubby. Not now. And such courtesy at the Montblanc boutique at Westfield Shepherd's Bush in London.

 

I would post an image but the pen is sitting snugly in a grey Montblanc pouch in a sealed black Montblanc envelope in a Montblanc bag together with a catalogue which the chap there gave to me. I will have to take the pen out one day and will post images then.

 

I also saw and held the Einstein Limited Edition 3000 FP and am most sorely tempted. It's a solid piece of work and the formulae etched on the barrel are exquisite.

Glad you received such excellent service. Enjoy your pen. My 146 is a daily writer for me, great pens.

good to hear

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
