    Default Pen Sleeve for Montblanc 149

    Hi Folks,

    For those of you who have a Montblanc pen sleeve or pouch does the 149 fit.

    Here are the two Montblanc offers:

    Montblanc 1 Pen Sleeve
    https://www.montblanc.com/en-us/pen-...411794219.html

    Montblanc 1 Pen Pouch
    https://www.montblanc.com/en-us/pen-...437076263.html

    I'm more interested in the sleeve than the pouch. Montblanc says they will fit Classique or LeGrand pens. Does anyone have one of these and know it fits a 149 as well?

    Anyone know of a good, leather, pen sleeve that fits a 149?

    Thanks,
    Rick

    Neither of them will be a good fit for a 149. They will both be too tight. There is more of a possibility that a 149 might fit into the latter but it's unlikely that you would stand any chance of getting it to fit into the former.

    Thanks Chrissy,

    I appreciate the info. I had a hunch that would be the case.

    Thanks,

    I have a Pelikan, an OMAS, and one without a name: all of which are sufficiently wide to hold a 149 plus other pens. Sometimes I have a 149, a 51, & a 61 in them. Other times, I carry a 149, 51, & No Nonsense. Good luck with your hunt. The youngest one is around 20 years old.

    It is possible to fit a 149 to both cases, but you will have to stretch them to accept the bigger diameter of this pen. I know it because I have already done it. Use your fingers or another pen of similar diameter to help enlarge the sleeve. The cap finial will not be covered by the sleeve, however. The pouch will offer a better protection, of course, but it will also demand a similar job.

    Go for something custom made, I've bought a lot of montblanc simgle pen cases which were a bit tight for the writers editions or special editions, a friend of mine has the 149 on the single pen sleeve but he had to stretch it beyond comfort to have it fit in, and it was still a tight fit.

    My wife bought one for me. It's large enough to hold a 149 or M1000 with room to spare and the sides cover the top of either pen. No idea where she got it or brand. It is leather with a soft lining.

    Thanks for all the suggestions.

    Rick
