Discontinued, years back.

Lucky me then. Just bought one with the sticker on it, but hasn't arrived yet. :)

I believe the boheme line was all discontinued back in 2012. Not 100% sure on the year but they were all discontinued

I don't think this is quite right - the Moongarden version was only a couple of years ago wasn't it? Now that's an underrated pen - I didn't like the pictures of it, but in the flesh it's stunning, IMO.

I chose my user name years ago - I have no links to BBS pens (other than owning one!)

I was yesterday at a Montblanc Boutique and they told me that they first discontinued the regular resin versions of the Boheme ( could not confirm the 2012 and kept the special and limited version for a few years more, till 2 years when they discontinued all of the Boheme line, including special and limited versions.

I believe it's right the Boheme has been discontinued. They are no longer available at any US retail stores and authorized dealers. I have been to a few locations on the West and East coast and have asked. But it does not mean the pen is rare. Was told I might still be able to find these at the factory outlet locations. Unfortunately those are not near me at all.

 

I just saw one at the Narita duty free shop and have asked my regular shop in Asia to keep the last limited edition for me. I think the line has been produced for so many years that it will take a while for the stocks to dwindle down. It's still easily accessible in Asia.

Both the Mozart and the Boheme discontinued - that's a shame for those of us who like small pens.

Count me as another one who enjoys writing with smaller pens.

The platinum Mozart, vintage 3-42 Gs, and the two Classiques on my desk are cherished treasures.

The Danish-made Coral-red 212 EF which came to my writing desk is small scale, but what a great writer it is!

Despite my height and large fingers, smaller fountain pens have been pleasing writers in my experience.

I hadn't realised the 114 (Mozart) had been discontinued?

 

Glad I have two - one in PL and one GL !

 

Even happier when I learned here how to get the clip/nib to align!

      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
