Look the body throught a light (lamp or sun) if the plastic is red, it's good.

I don't like your clip.

The Montblanc had a full body clip, here seems to be a little box of metal, but maybe is a reflex...

Everything looks normal to me, including the clip. It's exactly like mine and I bought mine in a Montblanc boutique, so I know it's authentic.

 

The box looks authentic too and that's usually the first giveaway.

 

However, you have bought the pen that's probably the most faked Montblanc on ebay. If you want full peace of mind, ask someone in your Montblanc boutique what they think. Don't say you bought it from ebay though......

Yes your pen appears to be completely authentic. It is one I have seen on eBay by many different sellers, so it must be popular. All of your materials- box, booklet, and the pen of course- don't show any signs of the counterfeits.

I keep thinking about selling some of my pens but all that happens is I keep acquiring more!

      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
