Monteverde Invincia Rose Gold Review

[zepp]

Received my Monteverde pen today, thought I might share some pics and write down my thoughts about this pen

 

The pen does not feel cheap in hand, the threads are well done, it is glossy, slightly heavy, feels very sturdy.

The pen has a bit of hard starting issues, but once you get it going, it writes well.

 

You can pull the entire nib/feed out and adjust and play with the nib (or replace it, although I don't know if this one is a #6 nib)

 

I LIKE this pen, due to its sturdy factor, this will probably be in my pocket or in my backpack.

 

If you have any question about the pen, feel free to ask.

I got one of these recently with chrome details and a fine nib. I was considering the rose gold, but thought it looked a bit ostentatious (and I don't really do gold).

 

I'd add a couple more underlines to "nail" - it's smooth, but has absolutely no give at all.

 

I love the way it looks (the carbon fibre does it for the car nut in me), but I haven't found it particularly comfortable for long periods of writing.

I bought this pen a while back from Pendleton Brown, with the nib done in a nice butter-smooth italic. It's probably my smoothest nib, though as noted above, it is definitely a nail. I love the look of the pen, and since I like weightier pens, that doesn't bother me. Plus it has a nice long, smooth section for holding. I keep it inked almost exclusively with PR tanzanite, and it looks brilliant!
