Icon10 First Mont Blanc

Got this starwalker black resin as a gift yesterday, my name engraved in white. Definitely a step up from my trusty Parker jotter..

Congrats on that new pen!

I like the way the snowcap is suspended in the resin giving it a 3D effect.

My favorite is the Mont Blanc "broad blue" refill

Congratulations. I think that Mont Blanc is a great pen and I have been using one for 25 years and it is still with me. Along with a few more.

Nice gift!

But clicky Jotter would be quicker to unsheath than a twisty mechanism

Jotters are as much an icon as snowcap.

Congrats Bas. Great gift to receive. I like MB and have used one or another for many years now. Classic pens that stand the test of time. Much like Rolex imo.

An MB Starwalker ballpoint was my first fine pen. You'll love it!
