    Default Pentiques repair services - highest possible recommendation

    Aaron at Pentiques masterfully repaired a leaking Montblanc 146 90th Edition Rose Gold nib pen that sprung a leak along the filling thread at the spindle.

    He masterfully repaired and restored a Pelikan M800 with a similar leak, and a Pelikan M800 Special Edition Tortoise Shell whose spindle I broke off after the filling mechanism clogged.

    Aaron promptly acknowledged receiving the pens. Within a few days, he sent another email explaining what repairs were needed and the cost. He repaired and returned all three pens within two weeks. He also returned the broken spindle.

    I'm delighted to be able to write letters with these pens again, especially since Chartpak had indicated that the M800 Tortoise Shell would have to go to Pelikan in Germany because it is a Special Edition pen.

    After reading recent posts here expressing concern about the lack of communication from the outside repair company Montblanc USA is using to fix pens, I searched the net for MB repairs and Pentiques was the first result after MB's for sale on eBay and Amazon.

    Aaron's expert repairs have my highest possible recommendation.

    Agree, have sent a few pens to Aaron and Pentiques as well and the quality of the repairs, the communication along the way, and the overall level of service was excellent. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for pen repairs/restorations.
