Hi, 

Beautiful pen. How broad do these stubs run. ?1.3-1.5mm.

Roshan

 Thank you, @roshpens.

I believe they are about 1.3 mm. I have never measured it (and it is uninked now). They run pretty broad, but not as broad as a Pelikan Italic Broad, which is supposed to be 1.5mm.

@Lam1 thank you for mentioning the Pelikan nib. I have one for a 200 model. It is indeed a wider one. I didn’t know the measurement, so I appreciate that.

@Misfit, I believe the M200 had two stubs, one 1.5mm and another 2.0mm (if we are talking about the steel nibs). The M400 and M800 gold nibs are supposed to be 1.5 mm (although I believe they run wider than that).

 

Here are a couple more currently in my desk (the vibrant blue is actually a cursive italic, not a stub).

I feel 1.3 is as good as it gets.

The M805 Vibrant Blue is indeed gorgeous!

It is also very dear to me, as I didn't get it when it first came out and then it disappeared from all stores, becoming virtually impossible to get at the time. 

My wife and son, knowing how much I liked it, located a store in Germany that did not sell online and (perhaps because of this) still had one. They figured out a way to get this one and gift it to me.

Wow! Thats a great story almost like a movie script and the gift from loved ones makes it even special .

Always happy to give a fellow collector a little push in the "right" direction! 😁

There is a face on the band as well a crab and other critters. It is very intricate. The top of the clip is also a helmeted head.
