Rare Montblanc Model ?

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone !

 

I just bought this Montblanc fountain pen. It was described as a silver plated classic... But I can't find any information about it on the internet. Can someone help me ? Is it a 221, a classic ? Is it a rare pen ? In that condition with the box and the papers what was the good price to pay ?

 

I really need your help because I've never seen a pen like this before.

Pen in first post has gold nib.

 

the pen pops up often in this forum with someone or the other asking about it. I would not call the pen rare.

Looks like you may have got a BB nib? Very nice.

 

Not really my style of pen - but I have to admit that I do like the look of it. Stylish! How does it write?

 

Congrats!

It is not the exact same model because of the gold nib... But what is the name of the pen ? Is it a model 2229 with a gold nib or something else ?

Yes I really like the pen and it writes very well ! It was described as a OB nib but It is not "Official"... Could be OBB too !

You have an early model Silver Plated ' Classic" model number 2229. The nibs on the last of the classic series had only the word montblanc whereas the earlier ones had only 585. The pen shown on ebay could even be the same vintage as yours with the nib having been replaced at a later date.

      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
