1. shouldnt be the MB 149 as that one you got has good line variation.
2. not Nakaya as that Nakaya has wider lines.
3. not Aurora as this example has thinner lines.

So it's left with Sailor or Classic or Onoto. Take a pick, no idea :-)

N.B. If the ink used needs to be matched as well, then it looks like the Sailor.

Hope it was a bit of fun, it was the Sailor that I used. The ink used in all but the Classic and the biro was Noodlers Air Corp Blue/Black

Its interesting how the Montblanc 149 medium is about the same as a Nakaya double broad
Also interesting how the ink flow from the Nakaya looks more plentiful than the 149....why would that be so?

I asked John from Classic Fountain pens to ship the Nakaya with a "Juicy" ink flow, the MB was shop bought unadjusted stock, albeit about 13 years ago.

Methinks you have been drinking a bit too much. There is no such thing as a Mont Blanck 149 Fountain Pen.
