I am speechless! Excellent taste in MB pens.

 

Bry, you have an amazingly beautiful handwriting!

 

Did anyone ever say to you that it looks "girly"? Here is an interesting thread Manly Handwriting

Wow

what a stunning piece of art.

It looks like it has found a worthy home.

 

Who owns the other 332?

I am so happy that I'm hooked on celluloid and resin - I can admire and appreciate these wonderful pens without being tempted.

 

It is gorgeous.

That is a beautiful pen.

How heavy is it?

 

I guess it would be significantly heavier than the regular 149.

 

Would it compare to the Thomas Mann in weight?

WOW!!!

 

Thanks for your sharing the pics (before and after)!

Never thought I would see this FP in "action"?

 

I have a question? Is that a 149 in platinum trim? I did not know that it exists. I tried to get one at the store, but they told me that the 149 is only available in gold trim.

The 149 you see it is a prototype not available since it is not only silver plated, it has a MOP cap and a 18C stubbed nib. A dream pen and the owner says it is one of the nicest pens he has handled.

 

The 333 should be heavier than the 149 just for the overlay!! That is a grail pen!!!!

I dont have this one anymore, but it was actually pretty light. About the same weight as a 149 as I remember... Maybe a bit more. The overlay is very thin.

Please, please, please post a review of this in the reviews forum!

There's not a single one there yet and chances are there never will be. This is not a common pen that people own, you know. I would love to see a good long review with lots of photos.

 

I LOVE this pen. I could never buy one even if I had the money but I still absolutely LOVE this pennotworthy1.gif

 

On a last note: Enjoy your great pen!thumbup.gif

Need a pen repaired or a nib re-ground? I'd love to help you out.
