Mont Blanc Beatles

[theverdictis]

Hi All,

 

Was wondering if anyone has hands on experience with the Mont Blanc Beatles limited Edition pen? My father in Law is a massive fan and I was looking at purchasing one for him for his 60th Birthday present.

 

Any advice on pen nib availability, hands on experience would be great.

 

Many thanks

 

Ben

It's post #156.

I hope that might answer several of your questions.

If you wish to purchase one as a 60th Birthday present then I would assume you can buy one from a Montblanc boutique and choose any nib that you want.

The nib writes - as far as I can judge it from a boutique-test - superb and looks great with the apple - in my opinion one of the most beautiful MB-nibs. However I found the threads troublesome for my fingers - even sharp, but this depends I am sure on the way one writes.

Sounds like you prefer a higher stance on the pen, as I do.

Very much so. Your close up of the section step and threads was exactly what I needed to see. Thank you!
