MONTBLANC 149 1980s - 18 C NIB - FLEXIBLE

Ever since its introduction in the 1950's the 149 has been one of the most desirable models by Montblanc.

The model has undergone a number of revisions in the course of decades with many details such as feeder, shape of the section, clip and mechanism, being slightly modified. 

Dating a Montblanc 149 is not always easy and immediate although a few details can be taken as a reference to place a pen at least in the right decade.

This 149 dates back to the 1980's. It has a fluted section, a 18C gold nib, an ebonite feeder and a black mechanism.

The ring of the clip is slightly thicker than more modern ones and it shows the engraving: "Germany".

The nib is nicely flexible and very pleasant to use.

Grade F

The pen comes with its original box whose white satin lining is unfortunately a bit damaged.
