I am using a Boheme similar to the one in the previous post. Mine is a BB nib. I thought it was considered to be stainless steel. Oh well. I'm also using a 147 Traveller - OM nib - both with MB Royal Blue cartridges.

Decided against bringing the Fitzgerald and Collodi to a client's office. Although I love using these pens, I don't want to be seen as Mr. Fancy Pens. Bringing the 149 and a Waterman Expert II instead. Florida Blue and Heart of Darkness.

thanx, rock-man and hari!

 

how difficult is it to find the back jewel/snow emblem? BTW, was $125 a good price for this? it writes flawlessly!

 

Congrats on a fine purchase. A really nice Meisterstuck.

 

I have a feeling there are some more MB acquisitions coming in the near future!

 

The 60's and early 70's MBs are really nice. If u have the opportunity, try one with an OB or OBB nib or even BB which is more stubby in character. I like them all. Soft smooth with a wet but controlled inkflow. Very addictive. :-). Enjoy your new 124!

thank you! quite honestly, i don't think i can afford any more MB's :embarrassed_smile:... but, i really hope this is not the "first and last" -just the "first". :happyberet:

The 149 worked great for taking notes yesterday, as did the Expert on the return trip by train.

 

But I'm back at the company office today, so the Fitzgerald B and Collodi F are on active duty. Florida Blue and Bekakt Haags.

 

Edit: funny how paren open, B, paren close turns into a smiley (B)

hello everyone! remember what i said about my 124 missing the back jewel? well, very carefully, w/o disturbing the performance of the spindle, i epoxied the piston cap to close the hole and then gave it a coat of acrylic and here's the result:

My MB 144, currently filled with Diamine Claret. It's a wet F on the side of M, adjusted for me by Mike Masuyama (it used to be a somewhat dry writer). I've had it for 22 years, and I'm glad I had the flow tweaked. It makes writing with pretty colors very enjoyable!

i just realized that some of the posts here include mech pencils, BP's and RB's. and since i had a set of Meisterstuck -all but the FP- from back in the 80's 90's.........

 

... today: mech pencil, HB graphite. i like 4B, but it seems to break very easily in this MP.

Still working at home :headsmack:

 

Luckily I have some good companions. Mann filled with Royal Blue. Collodi with Mystery Black and Pelikan M1005 with Hitchcock ink for some highlighting.

My preferred supplier (no affiliation just a very happy customer):
