Montblanc Vs Tibaldi

[qwepoi]

Hello all

Could not find a Topic for what happend to me.

I wanted to treat myself with a new montblanc pen. So i went to a big pen store with a separate montblanc floor.

Short story short, i came home with a tibaldi Bentley.

Tibaldi is the first italien pen factory for very high end pens.

The nib was something else for my taste so I could not resist.

 

The pen is very heavy wich I like,

The Clip is perfect with the wheel it just glides down and up.

And the nib is very solid feel, still soft and smooth. lt gives you a little sound but it just glides over the paper.

I am in a way sad i didnt get a montblanc but happy to find this one.

Took me the hole day to make this desission.

Sorry to bother you with my story ...

You can always get a good second hand mb in the market place.

Not sure why this has been posted in the MB forum. Most people on this forum would have bought a MB when out shopping for a MB.

[Opooh]

I have tens of Montblancs and one Tibaldi. Nevertheless, more Montblancs will follow, the Tibaldi will be sold.

Yes i know its strange to post it, but i had to share my pen day.

Sorry for that.

 

I chose the montblanc midnight blue ink to go with it.

Welcome to the MB forum.

 

How are you enjoying your pen and the ink?

[qwepoi]

The pen is brilliant for a not-montblanc-pen.

its very very close to my favorite, the heritage.

 

The ink is a very nice blueish dark grey colour, nice pen-ink combo.

While I'm not sure why the topic says Montblanc v Tibaldi I'm not a fan of the pen the rings around the grip looks a little strange maybe its the lighting but it looks like theres a gap causing a dark shadow . That being said I hope you enjoy your pen and have many happy years using it.

Thanks for sharing.

I love the heritage 1912. Unfortunately mine is in the repair shop right now. Edited October 17, 2014 by meiers

Hard to beat a Tibaldi; kinda like a Montblanc but with soul and vita.

I think you are in the right place. You love fountain pens...

thank you.

Was just stunned by the nib, suits my writing.

 

because i like heavier pens, the MBs were toot light or didnt catch me by the nib.

I usually spend about 1000 euros for a pen.

but iam open to suggestion because i would like another MB.

So far i have the meisterstueck mozart, ballpoint, pencil and fountainpen, and the heritage.

Want a heavy MB? the gorgeous Sterling Solitaire barleycorn 146! And well within your budget.

If you like heavier pens you might consider a Tribute to the Mont Blanc in Le Grand size (146). It's all metal, and farily heavy (62 grams, if I remember correctly). It looks special, different from the rest of the Meisterstück line, and feels very well balanced despite its weight. And it fits your budget (although perhaps a bit tightly).

None of those pens cost 1000 Euros..
