What's Your Most Recent Mb Purchase? 2019 Edition

[fpupulin]

Michael R., is that the beautiful celluloid used in the past by Delta in a few pens, and by Montegrappa in his elusive Extra 1930 and more recently in the Nazionale flex?

 

It is the most mesmerizing modern marbled celluloid that I know! It looks like real Roman Imperial marble.

 

Congratulations for the stunning and well-deserved finding!

I picked up a converter and a pack of Royal Blue cartridges to try out. Haven’t used MB cartridges before and thought I would give them a go

This sounds like a perfect rotation! Which of these pens are you enjoying the most at the moment?

 

At the moment the OBB's are my go to pens, but I'd probably use an OF.OB and OBB in the next rotation which would be about next week.

Yes, you have a good eye. Marble Green - whoever came up with this name.

 

You care to see more pictures?

I really looks stunning and fits the pen nicely.

 

Cheers and thank you for your nice comments.

The OBB is a great choice! I really enjoyed writing with the tester pen at boutique.

Thank you all for the kind words. I do enjoy the look of these Montblanc pens that look like Sailor pens.

Zaddick, funny that the smaller one has the bigger nib!

Perhaps overcompensating? Too bad though. I would have preferred a much broader nib on the 149.

Lord help me, another 149 is inbound.
