Merry Christmas to me and From me
Got myself a Mont Blanc. Not an outrageous purchase as I got the Rollerball. Looks amazing. But unfortunately writes worse than a Pilot Gel pen imo. Hopefully will find some better cartridges for it, as it looks and feels amazing.

I've wanted one for ages. I have a few nice pens and pencils but nothing like a NOS Mont Blanc. Well not new anymore lol maybe the ink went dry though. Ill see how it is after some refills.

Very nice NSX. I think they're only on their way up in value. They seem to have been undervalued for quite some time

A fine writing instrument and rather well balanced. Good choice.
Merry Christmas.

Actually the Starwalkers are great pens.

See if you can find a fine liner for it. Typically they will take those refills as well a BPs and RBs of course.

My congratulations on a lovely acquisition!

ended up getting a fineliner refills, I use it daily now and have for the past year. I have a few scuffs to the top of it which kind of bother me, but can't complain. i'm surprised I haven't shattered it yet tbh. seems to be my biggest fear.
