Here is a Montblanc Monterosa.

It seems to have silver trim, a steel nib, and a blue ink window, all wrapped in a nice black resin barrel.

This pen looks really pretty to me. I want a pen that has the attributes I've described above.

Are there any other pens that look similiar to this style? Off the top of my head, the Pelikan 205 almost hits the mark, but it has a grey ink window.

Well you are not going to find many pens that look like the Montblanc Monte Rosa. As for the trim, it is not silver but gold plated steel. Monte Rosas are very nice vintage pens with very low price tags (compared to other MBs). Also, they can be found with gold nibs as well as steel nibs. Sorry I couldn't aide in finding a similar pen... :embarrassed_smile:

Yeah it looks like the gold has all worn off on this model, but this gives it a nice elegant look.

Some of the old Geha pens look similar. Like the one in this post: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?/topic/90303-flexy-obb-stub-italic-geha-705/.

 

I have a Geha with steel trim and a blue ink window, but it has a hooded nib. I'm not sure if there were any with open nibs and steel trim, but I bet somebody else around here will know.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
