A Montblanc Meisterstück 149 In Red Gold

Thank you for the great review. ... and yes, there is a little breathing hole just under the bottom part of the clip. All the years I did not know about something like that. :)

Great review. Just found the hole in my 146 cap under the clip ball.

 

I remember when I took my 146 to the local Montblanc Boutique to have it's nib exchanged shortly after I purchased it, the manager took a very quick look at the cap and pronounced it to be a genuine Montblanc. Wonder if he was looking for the hole to help confirm it?

 

Thank you.

My old 146 doesn't seem to have a breather hole under the clip ball :wacko:

Great review, and funny nobdy has ever noticed the breathing hole before!

 

I was happy to hear that last year MontBlanc starting to produce the 149 with different colors for the details.

 

Since a month they also have the platinum-plated details, my personal favorite.

 

Thank you and I do agree that I would have skipped it in case it was under the clip ball.

The platinum one also looks amazing, though I personally prefer the red gold shade.

I do not think (others can correct me on this), for a new (2015 onwards) MB pen, the cap band comes with Pix inscribed on it.

Pix is more of a hallmark found on the underside of the clip. Linked post here, some with Pix on cap band.

For this, a relative new 149, it doesn't as far as I remember, but it does mention metal & Germany on the underside. Thanks!

My 149 Rose gold bought in 2015 does not have Pix anywhere on the pen.

Better late than never :)

think better to ask the mb customer service, they do seem to have a timeline based trademarking, they will be the best people to answer!
