The EF nib is very smooth for its fine point, with a properly adjusted flow, and writes really, really well on all paper. The grip and pen is gurthy and is something you should try for yourself.

Appelboom is to be commended for the prompt responses, quick service, and expedient delivery! Not once, nor twice. But every time you place an order and consistently over time - again and again and again! I love it, I trust it, and I can rely on it!

Great product, great vendor, and great experience1

I think there should be a 4th criteria for purchase experience on the ratings :) 5 stars!!

I bought Montblanc 149 in BB 6 months ago. I have been writing with this fountain pen ever since. I requested the nib to be checked prior the despatch. And oh my god - it is so smooth and juicy. I love every single ink I am putting in this pen, I can enjoy its quality and colour every moment.
The Appelboom service is amazing. Such a friendly and helpful staff. I hope they are going to open their branch in London as I probably will be their daily customer, if they do. Thank you so much Appelboom for such a lovely pen and your constant hyper care about the customer. You are the one of not many companies that they didn't forgotten what is important. Thank you Appelboom! You are the legend!

Review Title: Everything as expected

It's not always guaranteed that an expensive pen will write out of the box. I've had it happen a few times so I was very nervous about this pen, especially since I didn't see the option for Annabelle to tune it. I ordered off my phone so I could have missed the option somewhere. I was delighted when the pen wrote perfectly without any issues. It's everything I thought it would be. Also, even though my order didn't initially come through, Joost took care of it. My pen came gift-wrapped AND it came with two delicious Stroopwafels. I would definitely order again. My only regret is that I didn't try the italic nib but I've never written with one so I didn't want to risk it.

A classic beauty. A great writer. The pen is so comfortable in my hand. It’s girthy and great if you like girthy pens. I also can comfortably use the 146, but the 149 is great for my medium to small hands. I love my handwriting with the pen. The EF is smooth and thicker than my Japanese EF and F pens. It’s the broadest Western nib I can use. Highly recommend this one.

It’s an icon. I adore the shape, size, feel, materials, and look of this pen. One small nitpick I have with this and my 90th anniversary rose gold 149 is that the nibs are really dry out of the box with lots of hard starts. I should have requested an adjustment from Anabelle (in house nib specialist extraordinaire) but I was too impatient. Please learn from my mistake. :)

This pen series is my favorite pen series. I used have platinum 149 and I just bought a gold plated version from Appelboom. The gold coated version is really the classic and emblem of the Montblanc fountain pen: It is huge, gorgeous and it fits my hand so well.Also the nib writes very smoothly just like other Montblanc pen series. The price is also competitive and reasonable for its design and quality. Even during the pandemic, Appleboom can still offer it and deliver it to you very quickly. It was a really enjoyable purchasing experience.

I bought Mont Blanc Meisterstuck 149 (Nib size BB) from Appelboom. During this unprecedented lockdown situation, I finally got a chance to take out the MB-149 from the box and write. Unfortunately, while writing with MB-149 I discovered that I am not able to write smoothly for which MB is known. The ink flow is a problem. I immediately contacted the Appelboom over email and I got a very positive response from Joost Appelboom and he asked me to send the MB 149 to him for further checking.
I am trying to get it checked in India otherwise I will send it to Appelboom for service and Joost agreed to look in to the issues. I must appreciate the Appelboom for his personal touch during and after the sales.
I really like the design of the pen and its majestic nib but unfortunately I am not able to feel its flow in writing at present. I hope very soon I will get it checked. I highly recommend purchasing from Appelboom considering it’s before, during and after purchase response.

Review Title: MB 149: The most iconic pen globally

• Review Add on: 07-07-2020

The MB 149 is the most recognized and imitated fountain pen anywhere. However, there is nothing that surpasses the original Montblanc quality and performance. Appelboom helped me get a BB nib which is difficult to find in the US and I thank them for their help and rapid international delivery.
My 149's double broad nib writes bold and wet. The 149 is extremely smooth writing and a real joy to use. The 149 is also lighter in the hand than I expected and it does not tire my hand during longer writing sessions despite its impressive physical size. It makes a superior signature pen and is used as such around the world.
It is certainly a luxury class pen. If you are a collector, an experienced fountain pen user, or looking for a very well regarded business or graduation gift, I think you will appreciate the 149 for its quality, reputation and impressive performance. I do.

I ordered a Mont Blanc Meisterstuck 149 from Appelboom.
Before making my final decision, I have been guided via direct contact on messenger. The responses I got were very clear and consistent.
I placed my order during the lock down and despite this exceptional situation I received my order on time and in good conditions.
I definitely recommend Appelboom for their exceptional quality of services, their competitive price and free delivery.

Finally I got my grail pen, Montblanc Meisterstuck 149. I bought this pen with Fine nib and it writes beautifully. The nib is quite soft and springy but it's not a flex nib. I was looking for this pen for quite sometime and was not able to purchase it due to its premium price. There is no denying that Montblanc pens are expensive and there are cheaper options around. However you are paying for the brand recognition hence the high price.
I bought it from Appelboom at a very decent price (including 15% discount). 149 is the flagship model of MontBlanc and it sports a 18kt dual tone gold nib. The beauty of Montblanc is that they have a wide range of nibs from EF, F, M, B, BB, OM, OB, O2B and O3B.
The pen cap adorns 3 gold plated center bands and unique serial number on the clip. It's a piston filler pen and holds a lot of ink.
It's a traditional cigar shape classic design. The pen though made of precious resin feels solid and it has a very satisfying heft to it.

Montblanc Gold Plated 149 is my best lover. I bought this fountain pen with an EF nib. The pe itself is very beautiful and it writes with a very smooth feeling. Many pen shops do not have the special nibs like EF in stock and they have this pen in stock and offer you a very fast speed: It only take 3 days to ship into the US in a very secure wrapping.

Review Title: If you are deciding to buy the 149, here are the reasons I did

• Review Add on: 03-09-2018

I have bought two 149, both from Appelboom.

You may be debating whether to buy this item. Only you can decide but here were my considerations:

- High quality of build, from nib to piston to cap, very very well done.

- Lighter than it looks. Heavier pens may feel impressive for 5 minutes but this is one you can write with for hours.

- Many nib options all time tested and superbly crafted. There is even a nib exchange program. Mine are BB and OBBB but you can suit your preference.

- Finally I can say I have them on my desk at work and home all day and evening long.

For price and customer care I would only look to Appelboom.

Review Title: Montblanc 149, O3B

• Review Add on: 19-04-2018

This is a pen I had to think long and hard about getting. I knew, on one hand, that it would be perfect for me. I knew I liked the feel in hand of the 149, and I had tried an O3B nib on someone else's 149 and loved it. Price was the only thing that held me back. When I finally pulled the trigger I ended up with a pen that has become a favorite of mine. The nib is very smooth , and has tons of lovely line variation due to it's shape. To get the O3B nib the pen has to travel to Montblanc for a nib exchange, which to me seemed like a daunting process, however Appelboom made it easy and did it for me, something I really appreciate. Overall it is an expensive pen, but I haven't regretted my purchase. Furthermore, Appelboom's excellent service has won a repeat customer! -B
