In Topic: Montblanc Deluxe 275 and Montblanc Meisterstuck 642N c 1950s

Hi Buntoro,

Very interesting pens. I had never seen a 275. Looks very similar to the 642 but with a different clip and nib. The cap ring top and cap ring are also different.

Interestingly is that the code number does not follow the usual MB coding.

The best illustration I have ever seen was made by Christof ( hope you don't mind me sharing this here).

I would add 6 and 7 on the left side of the magic triangle (6 - Masterpiece with metal cap and plastic barrel; 7- Masterpiece with metalic cap and barrel)

Example: Montblanc 642
6- Masterpiece with Metal cap, plastic barrel; 4- Piston filling system; 2 nib and pen size


But in Denmark we can find very interesting MB pens ( especially the coral ones) and even some "oddities" .

Congratulation on this find! This 275 is a pen a would love to own.

Thanks for the comments and ChristofZ's "Magic Triangle". Indeed, the numbering does not follow Montblanc's usual numbering system. I guess there must be some other Danish Montblancs that also do not follow this numbering system, otherwise this would make the 275 very unique indeed. Best, Buntoro.

Congrats on your new collection Josephine. I too am a newbie but have started to collect some vintage MBs. I have a 50's 142 and 144.

Thanks for the great information christof and Vasco. I learnt a lot today!!!


Vasco, your collection is impressive!!! Wow! I would really like to own one of those striated MBs. If you would like to part with one of yours, perhaps you can let me know.

There is one X44 you did not mention - the 444. I believe it is the steel cap version. I have one in OK condition. Where does this fit?

Vasco, my 254 seems to have a very nice wing nib - it is a nice juicy writer. I have it in OM.

Wow what a collection! x2 for some pics of your collection. As a newbie I can only dream of owning some of those that you mentioned - especially since I am from a part of the world where it is figuratively a desert in fountain pen terms.

Welcome!
