Montblanc M Refill

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I am new to this group and I have a question that need some help.

 

I brought the Montblanc M rollerball pen for my wife but she said the line is too bold for this pen, Then I go to the store and brought the only compatible refill - Art fineliner and this time she said it is not smooth :yikes: . After I took her to MB store and try out the pens, she said she like the ballpoint. My local store do not accept return or exchange and therefore I am hoping anyone could advise me which MB ballpoint refill that I could buy to fit it this Montblanc M rollerball, I know the rollerball refill is different and I do not mind to do some DIY in order to make it work. Thanks.

 

I have took some photos of the refill and attached,. Thanks again.

 

Regards,

Walter

Hello and welcome to FPN. :W2FPN:

 

Montblanc BP refills do not fit any of their RB pens. RB pens only take RB or Fineliner refills.

Thanks Chrissy,

 

I understand it and therefore trying to see any other refill which is similar to this one and then I could do some small modification to make it fit.

Would you try to fill diesel into your car if it normally runs on gas?

 

I know it's not comparable but if you try to put a not suitable refill (no matter if this is from Montblanc or not) with a different size into your pen, filling up the difference with something self constructed you might destroy the whole pen. There must be a reason why Montblanc uses different refill sizes for the different bodies of their models, don't you think so? — So why not selling the pen in the bay and buy your wife a new and real ballpoint pen?

Please do not try to make modifications to the pen. I agree with penparadise , sell the RB and buy a BP.

The refill you show is a capless roller one; it can be replaced with a Parker ballpoint refill without any modification.

Walter, no good deed goes unpunished. This should teach you the consequences of trying to do something nice for your wife.

 

If you try to fix the pen, or substitute a Parker refill, you will make a bad problem worse. Take your wife to the store with you to be sure she gets the ballpoint she wants (and so richly deserves :rolleyes:), and to make sure she cannot heap more opprobrium, scorn, and contempt upon your head. Then sell the roller on the Bay. The difference between what you get for the roller and what you pay for the new ballpoint is the cost of today's lesson.

 

Did you buy the roller at a Montblanc boutique? If not, I'd look for a dealer that accepts exchanges.

Montblanc will provide you a new wife. :)

I don't think so, you rascal.

Thanks all for the advice, buying a new pen is much easier than getting a new wife :lticaptd: .

      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
