Hopefully in the next week or so I'll be getting a new job and I'm already thinking of possibilities of what pen I should get to celebrate the occasion. I'm list a few of my choices and then if you guys have any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
Here's what I'm considering:
Mont Blanc Boheme
Mont Blanc 149
Visconti Divina Maxi
Visconti Wall Street LE

That's all I can think of right now.

The last celebration pens I've bought/received have been Danitrios. One a Densho Tamenuri Urushi the other the FPN Fellowship pen. I'm growing to like the Japanese Lacquered pens.

I'll second Kelly G's motion for a Danitrio. I'm extremely impressed with my Mikado.

A Densho is on my radar.

I don't know much about the pen Kelly G and Eriquito mentioned, but i do know I've been looking at some Auroras and definitely think those could fall into the categoy of celebration pen rather easily. Congrats by the way on the job Dan. What are you gonna be doing man?

Yeah, I have two modern Auroras, an 88 and an Optima. The job would be as a food engineer for diamond crystal brands.

bdpatton2, you're right - an Aurora is a celebration pen. Especially if it's an 88 (either modern or vintage)!

Not if you already have a half dozen of them.

Is half a dozen the limit? I mean, once you have six MB149's do they also lose Celebration Pen status?

Yes, a half dozen is the limit. And yes, after 6 MB149s they no longer qualify as a celebration pen. No one has helped me narrow my choices...

You're right! Sorry about that...

My vote goes to:

Visconti Wall Street LE
(provided it has the 1.3mm 23k Pd stub nib, like mine =)
