[Maktoob0303]

Thank everyone for your comments and tips on my last post! A day after the post, I got my first Mont Blanc fountain pen. It's MiesterStuck Classique, Fine nib with Mystery Black ink.

I'm no MB expert but your budget is a bit too low for a MB fountain pen. You might wish to look at second-hand instead.

There are some Montblanc pens out there in that general range; consider a Carrera or Caressa, a Generations, some of the 1950s 2x and 3x pens or the 1960s 22x or 32x pens.

Congratulations Enjoy it in great health!

 

I have come to appreciate Mystery Black only recently. When I first got it I felt like it was a faded black that didn't live up to expectations, but now I enjoy the 'mystery' hehe

When I first used Mystery Black, it felt a bit too light but after awhile, I like it's gray kind of feeling.

 

Wonderful place you're living in btw. Visited there once and it was amazing.

Yes. I own a 342 and a Monterosa 042, which are very nearly the same pen, each of which cost me less than $100 and even if I hadn't gotten bargains, couldn't have cost much more than $100. And I have just now bought a SlimLine for $50 on eBay. Granted, I was the only bidder, and I'd have had to pay $100 or a bit more if there had been competition but, as jar writes, there are many lower-priced Montblanc pens offered for sale.

 

So, yes, it is possible to buy a Montblanc pen for less than $200. Or $150. A 149 in excellent condition, not so likely. Avoid the top of the line and it is entirely possible.
