I think I’ve had this pen for about four years now, and it’s been a great one – my favorite in many regards. The Montblanc “Meisterstuck” (German for “masterpiece”) is in many regards their flag ship line with broadest appeal to the average consumer and pen enthusiasts alike. So I guess I’m more of a watch guy then a pen guy in that regard because my first ball point pen was the Montblanc Meisterstuck ballpoint pen: Pen people scoff at ball point pens the way watch people poo-poo quartz watches as well. But true pen pen people write with fountain pens the way true watch people prefer mechanical watches. If I were a true pen aficionado, I would have fountain pens – and I do own one (non-Montblanc) which I never use. Just click on the photos to see larger versions. So I thought I’d break out my camera and take some photos – all of which were taken with the Canon 5D Mark II, and my Canon 100mm macro.
Of course, that doesn’t change the fact that I genuinely like and appreciate nice pens, and have really grown to appreciate Montblanc pens in particular. No amount of money I spend on a pen will ever improve my handwriting. I have a dyslexic related learning disability which dramatically impacts my penmanship.
To the degree that it’s foolish to spend an inordinate amount of money on a pen, it’s pure idiocy for myself in particular.
