OK, yesterday afternoon when I arrived home from a run to the supermarket my wife tells me there's a package on the table for me. Well, I knew in a second what it was.

Steve and everyone involved, thanks from the bottom of my heart for allowing me the opportunity to participate in this drawing.

I wish I was was an Ink Head but I'm not and truly have no interest in pens, but, I will try and enjoy this pen as much as I possibly can. First thing though, I need to know is how to put ink in the damn thing!!!!

Strap on your Rolex, jump in the ocean and find a squid.

Congrats.

mcjp6 · 18 July 2010, 11:32 PM

Make sure you clean the pen and empty the ink out prior to putting it in the safe for a while.

swatty · 19 July 2010, 08:06 AM

Congrats Steve, Enjoy it mate (when you work out how to fill it

)

Lol-x · 21 July 2010, 11:28 PM

Congrats on winning that great pen, I'm glad it founds it's way to you in Spain

Lion · 21 July 2010, 11:37 PM

Steve, congrats on the acquiring of your MontBlanc fountain pen. Did the pen come with a converter or is it piston filled, as I am not familiar with the 149, and a bottle of ink usually only costs $12.00 to $20.00 dollars USD per bottle. Do you have a MontBlanc boutique near you as you can go into the store and they will show you how to fill the pen. You have an iconic fountain pen and hope you will begin to use it as fountain pens write very smoothly as the nib glides over the paper!!!

Lion · 21 July 2010, 11:40 PM

Steve I just checked MontBlanc's web site and your pen is piston filled. As I said you can go to any store which carries MontBlanc FPs and they will show you how to fill it!!!

CoopJr · 22 July 2010, 12:10 AM

Nice going Steve!

2careless · 22 July 2010, 04:46 AM

Oh very very nice! Big congrats Steve!

Rolesor · 22 July 2010, 05:28 AM

erwin · 22 July 2010, 09:26 AM

Congrats! Now you own one of the best and most recognize fp in the world! Enjoy it dearly!

ps
nice penmanship too!

Lol-x · 22 July 2010, 03:43 PM

Yeah Steve nice writing

I didn't know you were going to show my scribbled note, otherwise I would have taken a little more care in the writing style.
The deal was that you were to show a photo of you enjoying your pen. I can see your pen but what happened to you?

erwin · 22 July 2010, 03:52 PM

No worries, Steve ( lol-x )!

We've seen your writing skills and they're not so bad either!

Nice pen Steve, the Montblanc 149 is legendary in the pen world, a true icon, so you do have a wonderful piece so I hope you enjoy it

mikey · 23 July 2010, 02:57 PM

Congrats, I feel very passionate about MB fountain pens. Writing shows the pure essence of the person. The 149 is very well-balanced writing instrument. Enjoy!

Andad · 23 July 2010, 05:34 PM

Congrats once again Steve.

Enjoy your MB.

tkc324 · 24 July 2010, 03:36 PM

An incredible pen! Wish I would've been able to participate!! What a prize!!

Limpiala con agua ya que su tinta esta basada en agua, antes de guardarla para que el "nib" (la punta que toca el papel) no se tape al estar sin uso.
