Cartridges For A Noblesse.

[Artytarty]

Hi, yesterday I dug out a pen I bought from Battersea Pen Home many years ago. For some reason I put it away and never used it.I think maybe because it appears to have a broad oblique (gold) nib.

Anyway, its one of those Gold reeded bodies, could be a SL. The pen has a snowflake on the end of the cap and on the bottom of the pen but not on the clip.

The clip is solid but tapered to the end.It looks like a nice pen. Feels good in the hand but I dont have any refills. What will it take? Clearly not the bag of 20 for 40p Tesco ones I bought today

I have 2 Noblesses. One NOS came with a converter and cartridges; the other used Noblesse only had cartridges. I went to my local MB store (who had an in-store trained pen repair technician) to see if I could get a converter for the used pen. To make a long story short, after the pen was sent to Texas and then Germany, that model of Noblesse was unable to accept a converter. I was still very happy because its many trips around the world and having a broken star replaced was all free.

 

So...your model of Noblesse may or may not be able to accept a converter and you'll have to buy or refill cartridges.

Mine looks like this one except the nib and pen grip piece are also gold. Clip and barrel are identical.

Arty,

You have a Montblanc Noblesse from the first series (not a SL), made between 1975 and 1981. It takes standard cartridges and you can use a standard converter as well.

Thank you. When you "standard "cartridges and converter do you mean standard-specially for MB cartridges?

or just any only cartridge?

Quite nice isn't it?

maybe I could get the nib changed if I cant write with the broad oblique .

Standard as the International or Waterman standard.

In the UK, you can buy International Standard cartridges from branches of W H Smith. Sold (cheaply) in bags, usually available in blue or black.

I have been using Waterman black ink cartridge in mine.

 

All I could find at the office supply store were Waterman and Sheaffer, and after reading up here about both inks, I went with the Waterman, since I don't find any MontBlanc cartridges stocked at any office stores in the area.

 

So far, no problems.

Two weeks ago Niklas supplied me with a converter for my '70's Noblesse. He may not charge shipping!
