Hi everyone! I just received a vintage Montblanc 1246 Gold F/Pen-18kt-F-Nib-1960s that I bought on E-bay. I need more information about it. Thanks in advance for your help. Any pictures would be much appreciated as well! .

Hi, :W2FPN: What information do you want, it is a great piston filler made by MB in the 70's. Nibs are typically excellent. BTW Congratulations, I was watching this auction.

 

Are these pictures here taken by you?

 

Best,

Hari

Actually, I think it is more likely from the early 70s to about 1977. The 12x series replaced the earlier two digit models and the 1246 would be the heavy rolled gold version IIRC .

 

Great pen. The earlier model would have been the 84 and had a black crown and base to the body.

A Second Welcome to the FPN!

That is a beautiful pen, one I have never seen before. :thumbup:

One question, is the model 1246? or 124G? I have found a 124, with gold cap but not all gold.

Thanks for sharing and enjoy your new-to-you Montblanc.

It looks stunning.

Cheers

Greg

First of all :W2FPN:

Model is #1246 , piston filler made between 1971-1977, gold plated, chased. The #124 probably was the precursor/sister model made between 1971-1973, made in Black resin with a gold plated cap. Basically the same pen, the difference being the #1246 has the gold plated barrel.

 

Not a common model to find...Nice grab!!

Well, Collectible Stars is nearly perfect but there have been two different feeds on the same models. Due to the feed this #1246 was produced between 1974 and 1977.

Nice. A beautiful pen. Now is this something you plan to ink, or will it occupy a special place in your collection to be archived?

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
