Well I think I am crazy.

I typically write with a uni-ball signo rollerball pen.

Bought first Rolex in Feb 2016, well now I want a nice pen.

Wife thinks it is dumb, and wants to know why I need such an expensive pen.

Initially I thought heritage, heirloom. Longterm cost over lifetime... earth friendly...

She still thinks its dumb, but I got her this time. I said its jewelry...

So I have narrowed it down to the brand. MontBlanc.

I was initially thinking a fountain pen. But I think I will be pursuing a roller ball for practicality as I don't have an office, and I am on the move quite often. I think a fountain may be a bit of a challenge.

Initially thought I would get the MontBlanc M, but read a review that changed my mind, but had attractive price point. I like the classic styles of the Meisterstruck. However I think I am leaning towards the Starwalker Extreme RollerBall.

Anyone have experience with the roller balls?
