What's Your Favourite Looking Montblanc?

[dannyboy]

I've been through this thread twice today and it is so wonderful in all the images of MB's great craftsmanship and artistry. Thanks to all of you who so generously took the time to present pens many of us would never have the opportunity to see!

Thanks! I really like it, specially with all the meaning behind the design due to its homage to Watt.

 

I havent been lucky enough to ever see the Max Reinhardt 30 in person, but from your pictures and the way you describe the materials it seems exquisite!

Technically not an MB. But if you want even more stunning, find a photo of the 149s he made in the same material.

No :-))

 

The Michelangelo is much less delicate in appearance and style. (not for me)

Oh I totally didnt find it appealing as well. I meant applying the use of natural resources

Then you might like this one in tiger eye with relief structure. It is the Max Reinhardt from 2011 (edition of 20); more Max Reinhardt I don't have.

Nice to see all those great and rare Montblancs!

 

My favorites would still be vintage pens like the 128PL or the danish green marbled faceted pens.

 

Modern pens ... ? Maybe the Klee, Moonpearl, 888 Charlemagne,...

 

Cheers

I wish the cap had matched the bottom.

Hi Zaddick,

 

I take it for a 100% MB. All originals components from de 50’, even the celluloid bar is original MB, used to produce it at that time. It was just “assembled” recently by Max.

The 149 from Max is gorgeous, but as it was never made by MB, this is the one that I don’t consider as a MB piece.

I think, with my technical interests, the Einstein skeleton attracts me, but the "regular" one would be sufficient if I could justify the cost of a NiB condition example. I love the gravity well under the clip.

[reduziert]

I am a lover of the classique shaped line, but my only pen out of that range is the Rouge et Noir in coral, and I adore it.

The red one is probably not a 220 but rather a 221 if it has two cap bands (upper narrow and lower wide at cap lip) or 321 if just one cap band. The 220 was the outlier in the line and had only one cap band (like the 3xx) but came in a brushed Makrolon finish.

Is the 221/321 nib design different from the 220, 1266?

What's your favourite looking Montblanc. It doesn't have to be one you own, but what Montblanc calls to you? Show us.

 

For me:

 

1. The Czar Nikolai (on the look out for one)

 

2. 146 Sterling Pinstripe (got this one last year)

 

 

WOW! I have both of those exact pens sitting in my collection (as a matter of fact, the Czar Nikolai is currently sitting in my shirt). GREAT TASTE MY FRIEND!

 

[PAKMAN]

It's between the 146 Sterling and the Dumas.
