Which MB is that? ^
1990 Meisterstuck 149 with a lovely 14k f nib with a bit of flex.
10 years in of serious pen-dom, using fountain pens since 1966... I still have yet to purchase an MB writing instrument. A handful of inks and a couple of empty "boot" bottles to use for other inks, but no reason to buy one of the pens. Time will tell.
A Generations with an OF nib a Classic with an OM nib and 2 256's , One M and one B . I really love the256's and think I now need one in each different nib option .

Almost forgot , got a like new Monte Rosa 034 with a F manifold nib and a 334 1/2 that needs a new seal .
I just got a UNICEF rollerball after buying and returning a Legrand rollerball from an ebay seller. The cap top is very nice and even the little blue stone doesn't make it gaudy. I also have a 146 at the repair facility for scratches on the barrel.

Got this Montblanc 134 with rare wartime engraved capband (first time for the triple cap band we know and love was hinted at ?)

264 won on ebay last night . Hope I like it as well as I like my 256's .
First I heard of the 264, found this thread http://www.fountainpennetwork.com/fo...montblanc-264/
Guess it was mainly a model that kept the open nib and screw cap alternative to the other 24x, less likely to end up with a cracked cap compared to the slip-cap options of the 50s.
Went a bit beserk on cyber Monday ink purchases which included 2 bottof the latest Purdey ink. Hoping it turns out to be the next ‘Racing Green’! :)
I currently do not own a Montblanc fountain pen... yet.
I was, however, lucky enough to obtain this MB bottle of 'Swan Illusion: Plume' ink to fill my Edison Beaumont.

Looks like a potentially excellent ink/pen match. Enjoy!
My own recent MB acquisition was also ink - with many thanks to member asw - a bottle of discontinued Sepia. Not an ink I knew of at all, and despite my hopes still an ink I don't know because the weekend proved hopeless for inksperiment. Ah well, hope oft deferred and all that.
