What do you think of this celebrative collection that Montblanc has released? Are you going to get one or already have done so?

[@vatasalgupta]

I’ll be getting the green doué this weekend!🎉

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

Got the 149 and the Doue LeGrand! Very well thought out and designed … a classy addition to any collection. Love them!!!

[@toddmurphy523]

I think that Montblanc is so iconic, that they have, in recent decades, become mundane in thought. I am very excited that with their 100 year Anniversary they once again are pushed back in the spotlight of excellence. This episode was so very informative and will be used for many years for historic information. Not to mention the new issues....😍

[@SamuelNaldi]

Thank you so much for your very kind words Todd and for sharing your opinion. ❤

[@toddmurphy523]

​​@@SamuelNaldiNow I hope to live long enough to see the 120th and 125th Meisterstuck Anniversary Editions....😉

[@rev.joy-ellenlipsky7241]

I wish there was a black and gold version of the coral pen.

[@charlesayodele2407]

I purchased the Solitaire and pre-ordered the 149. I foresee the Solitaire doubling in price sooner than later.

[@007fanatic13]

Beautiful! The 149 would be my choice 😄

[@SamuelNaldi]

Great one! 🙏🏼❤️

[@mellow-jello]

I think MB will learn that there is an untapped market for more colored FPs of their Meisterstuck line, and we should see more releases to come. About time they went back to their Jazz Age roots.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Definitely would be very very cool.

[@kerennalditorsello]

Just wow! I love the green douè!

[@SamuelNaldi]

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤

[@Innieminnie]

Production value on this video is fantastic

[@SamuelNaldi]

Thank you so much. 🙏🏼

[@donaldgoerig6171]

awesome, can't wait to see the new 149 videos!

[@SamuelNaldi]

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@The_PenCharmer]

Just Amazing.I love the camera quality & Die Kugelschreiben!

[@SamuelNaldi]

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@dannyk8069]

I got the 149. And it is spectacular.

[@TheRacerRich]

Montblanc should look at its nonexistent launch for this line, then look at this video, then fire their entire marketing team and pay Samuel as a consultant for all future marketing.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Thank you so much for these very kind words

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

@SamuelNaldi did an excellent job as usual. There will be an official launch sometime soon but don’t think that this is not all planned out or bad planning. They know exactly what they are doing. This is not all that is scheduled for this line, there will be more releases.

[@TheRacerRich]

@@dimitridiakovasiliou2453 they put all the pens on their page with no dedicated page for the collection, no splash on the homepage, and no email to subscribers

[@zachmeade3732]

Have you not seen the Wes Anderson movie they just made the other day ? In reference to the collection?

[@TheRacerRich]

@@zachmeade3732 Look at the date I posted this. They are over 3 weeks late launching their launch. That's bad marketing.

[@ladyindigo9835]

Fabulous Chanel!

[@acvaerials8817]

To Samuel’s comment concerning limited availability, last Friday there were 26 black 149 pens in the U.S. “warehouse”, there were 8 on Monday morning.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Hahahaha - it’s going Cray. Let’s see how it develops and how long it will be available.

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

I pre-ordered mine a month ago and got one out of the ONLY three 149s delivered to Canada. Very limited first shipment.

[@styleofzug]

❤❤❤ What a Collection

[@SamuelNaldi]

❤

[@DuduOhsson]

Some hits some misses. The new clip is maybe the most beautiful I have seen.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Wow now that is interesting feedback

[@toddmurphy523]

Wow....just checked out Anniversary editions from the past (75th, 90th etc.) on line. Invest now in the 100th Anniversary Editions and savor the rewards for the future.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Yep

[@zachmeade3732]

I love this collection I have the 149, very hard to get in the United States. I am looking for the inks! These seem to be even harder to track down!

[@thomasmorrison675]

Nice video Samuel. Since watching your videos I have gone to mostly using a fountain pen or a rollerball, rarely pick up a ballpoint anymore, not that there is anything wrong with doing so,. Can the cap on a Montblanc rollerball be removed and replaced MULTIPLE times a day with no damage to the cap or barrel? I have 4 Montblancs, just lacking a the fountain pen from them.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Very glad to hear! 🙏🏼

[@jeanneprice6736]

Fabulous

[@SamuelNaldi]

Glad you like it ❤️🙏🏼

[@varadharajannadarajah]

Online pics & videos actually do not show the beauty of these pieces to full extent. Recommend everyone to have a look in person in a boutique nearby.

[@SamuelNaldi]

That definitely is the best to do.

[@morenocuevas1243]

Love MB and I’m definitely considering the 149 in black. Question good sir, 149 Origin or Otto Hutt 08?

[@SamuelNaldi]

149 wont be around for long. design08 is a regular edition.

[@morenocuevas1243]

Agreed. I feel like I would use the Design 08 and the 149 would just be an addition to the collection. Because of that, I was leaning toward the 08, but I agree with your recommendation - 08 can wait. Further, I’d hate to miss out on this piece of Montblanc history.

[@varadharajannadarajah]

The pens look stunning in hand. Quality control has been excellent this time. Montblanc is generous to have kept the 149 Black/platinum model in reasonable price range. But it's released only in Medium. Going to give it for nib alteration to FINE, next week.

[@acvaerials8817]

Other reviews have suggested the medium nib on the anniversary 149 is closer to a fine than a traditional medium. Waiting for FedEx to show up later today with mine…

[@SamuelNaldi]

Enjoy it

[@SamuelNaldi]

The 149 is being delivered also in Fine. We are getting one very soon.

[@varadharajannadarajah]

@@acvaerials8817 Kind of true ! So I'm hoping that altering it to fine will do for me

[@varadharajannadarajah]

@@SamuelNaldi Oh !!!

[@KillianTD]

For the 145 Classique in green, you say in the video that it is a cartridge converter and on your website it indicates that it is a piston filler, I was under the impression due to the gold part at the end of the pen that it would be a piston, could you clarify it for me ? Great video otherwise !

[@SamuelNaldi]

that is a mistake on our site. It's converter cartridge like all Classique Fountain Pens. Sorry for the mistake.

[@haywoodf]

Hey thanks for the interesting vid. What about the 75th LE Meisterstück model with mother of pearl cap end, diamond in upper cap ring and pink gold trim and nib?

[@SamuelNaldi]

What is the question?

[@haywoodf]

@@SamuelNaldi In addition to the yellow gold unlimited version of the 75th anniversary model there was a LE numbered version with pink gold / mother of pearl. I’m pointing out that this was not mentioned in your vid.

[@miked8085]

Got a meisterstuck from my wife as a gift and since then I stumbled on your videos and got into pen collecting. As a newbie, if you are going to drop say $10k into a pen collection and have an idea of what you like, is there a way to get those as cost efficiently as possible? (i.e. wait until certain times, retail, ebay)

[@morenocuevas1243]

Friend, can you please review this serie’s inks?

[@SamuelNaldi]

Which inks sir?

[@morenocuevas1243]

@@SamuelNaldi The Montblanc Origin Collection includes inks: Coral, Green, and Blue.

[@AC1979fromCH]

Thanks for the excellent presentation as always. As for my impressions: I only like the 149, especially the metal parts and the color. However, I really dislike the cheap looking (at least to me) clip and the engraving. The other models are a bit too gaudy for my personal taste, especially the red one. Overall, I'm not sure yet if I'll get another 149.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Thank you much for sharing your opinion

[@arsenikkkk]

Beside the red one the whole collection is pretty underwhelming to me. In person, the cap material looks cheap and mismatches the barrel. The metal piston knobs throw the balance off the pen and makes it back heavy (some people like that). Thanks for explaining where these designs come from. I was confused what the inspiration was for these. Patiently waiting for 200 anniversary collection, may be it'll more exiting. :)

[@SamuelNaldi]

I can’t wait that long 😂 Thanks for sharing your opinion and impressions

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

I really like the weight of this 149 … it is just a little more back weighted than my other 149s. And the cap with the Ink effect is just mesmerizing; understated in normal light but with bright lighting or outdoor sunlight it really is something special; not like some of the other resins out there, this is classy.

[@TheRacerRich]

Is the solitaire actually lacquer, not colored plastic?

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

Gold-coated with lacquered pattern.

[@TheRacerRich]

@@dimitridiakovasiliou2453 Well now it is much more interesting to me. I thought it was maybe a plastic pen covered with a gold-coated web.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Like Dimitri said

[@nicolasmikah4168]

149 for sure

[@SamuelNaldi]

stunning piece for sure

[@salahalselene4957]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊

[@SamuelNaldi]

Thank you 🙏🏼❤️

[@nimishchawla6679]

I saw an unboxing video. Honestly they could have done a better job on the box. It was very underwhelming.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Ecological reasons and also reminds very much to the original Montblanc Box of 100 years ago

[@Aradel]

Honestly, a bit disappointed. The design and the old logo is actually rather nice but the nib design doesn't do the trick for me for a 100 year Anniversary. The coral color is too flamboyant for me but rather I think that the same design would have looked better in green. It just doesn't feel exclusive enough for me. I had been saving up and when I saw these I decided to get another pen from Montblanc that just looks way more classy, missed opportunity to be honest. Specially for the price point of the higher end models

[@SamuelNaldi]

The Clip is very “new” in the eyes of everyone, cause there is almost no big brand who did such a clip in the last 70 years - it will get more interesting over time, you will see ❤️🙏🏼🙂😉

[@Aradel]

I love the clip I think there is a lot of design history in this pen that makes them very interesting and would love one from that perspective, I was just sort of expecting something like precious stones or mother of pearl. If I am dropping that much on the pen it just feels rather unremarkable from that perspective, You only turn 100 once! I suspect they might do something more, we will see. I do seem to recall a certain interview that has been circling around online earlier this year. Thanks for the coverage! Love your channel

[@toddmurphy523]

I do kind of agree with you on the 100th editions. I loved how the 75th Anniversary Editions had the small diamond added on the "name plate" of the cap. Something small that added significance.

[@Aradel]

@@toddmurphy523 That is exactly what makes those editions special for me at least. The design nod back to the roots is a nice really touch which I sort of expected but I don't really feel its enough for me to open my wallet.

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

@@SamuelNaldiIt is just a wonderful collection. Love your video!!! I now have the 149 and the clip is something else; such a smooth, elegant curve … it just feels like a centennial, it really distinguishes this 149 from all my other 149s. By the way Aurora who was founded in 1919 also produced this same clip in the 1950s with their amazing Aurora 88big (one day I will get this beauty).

[@rikoflishas]

Why is he dressed like he is about to do a bank heist?

[@SamuelNaldi]

I do Heists once in a while

[@kedar9124]

Montblanc should have released the entire line up exclusively in le grand size. Squeezing in 149 in the line up is not a good idea. MB 149 was launched in 1952 and therefore it has nothing to do with the centenary edition. Initially I liked MB 149 but then the MB Solitaire in Coral will prove to be the sought after instrument from the origin collection.

[@SamuelNaldi]

Both Models will be extremely sought after. And it does make sense that they did the 149, as this is the celebration of the Model as a whole, not of a specific model launched on a specific year. 🙏🏼

[@user-td4hq6gb1h]

Absolutely disappointed. I think Montblanc got lost in order to produce a masterpiece 100th anniversary collection. I personally think this is a total disaster.

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

I just love my 149 and Doue LeGrand from this collection. Everything is so well designed and thought out … I think if you had the 149 in your hand you might change your mind.

[@SamuelNaldi]

i'm sorry to hear. for the reason i mentioned in the video i think they have done a good work.

[@brooklyncannery8607]

My first impressions were similar however once I saw the pens in person I realized the amount of thought and control that went into the choices. Sometimes the best things take a moment to process and make sense like a good film I didn’t quite ‘get’ the first time. The 149 is incredible.

[@dimitridiakovasiliou2453]

@@brooklyncannery8607 So happy to hear you liked it. It must not be easy to improve an icon and if the changes are drastic then it’s no longer a 149; but everything they did was well thought out and in good taste. I love how it stands out next to the classic 149.
