Montblanc Skeleton Blue Hour

[Opooh]

Last wednesday I got a mail from Dennis of La Couronne du Comte in Tiburg: " The blue skeleton was in the house!" Well Montblanc took us by surprise, it wasn't expected before september. You can imagine how I spend this saturday. Driving 70 km to Tilburg to admire Montblanc's latest beauty. And a beauty it is, the ice blue - platinum combination surpasses the red gold - grey combination of the 90th anniversary skeleton by miles. The strict geometric design of the platinum nib is just outrageous. The decision was quickly made, after a few months of display in Tilburg, it will be joining the 90th anniversary skeleton and the rest of the 149 gang. For those who can't go to Tilburg, I took some snaps with the iphone.

@Sampanel: See the label, it lists this as a model 149. 149 = #9 nib. That's what the "9" stands for. 1 denotes Meisterstueck and 4 denotes piston filler.

Oooh, that's pretty.

Nice photos and congrats on the great pen!

 

Just curious, from the label, it seems like a special edition instead of a limited edition (because no numbering). Am I right?
