Professionally Serviced by my hand at Pentiques.com: received in exceptional condition, minimally used prior, stored properly. We disassembled, lubricated the piston mechanism, cleaned the nib assembly, filled and bench tested on Rhodia paper with a Parker / Montblanc blend in. Flushed, emptied, allowed to air dry without cap on in preparation for listing. Ready to fill and enjoy.


ca. 1967-70 (last version) Montblanc Monte Rosa 401S Fountain Pen, perfect stainless cap, threaded cap.


14k nib marked 585 with script “M,” - Monte Rosa, not nib size - nice writer.


Writes like a Fine nib when bench tested however, looking closely at the ebonite feed there appears to be an “M” marked on it which would indicate Medium.


We did list as a Medium in the “item specifics” so, you’ll have to decide based on the writing sample.


Note: there is a horizontal line across the clip you could mistake for a scratch, it is factory (see image)


Exceptional condition.


Any questions, just ask.
