on saleMonteverde Invincia Deluxe Fountain Pen - Rose Gold

Have had this pen with a flex nib for about 2 years. Looks great, is on the heavier side, cap does not post. Definitely a desk pen, however even as a desk pen it's not great. Ink flow is inconsistent, frequently running dry even when I use a light touch

The pen looks even more incredible in person. That carbon fiber just looks asewome. However, you may want to buy a sheet of micro mesh and a brass sheet with it since the nib needs more out of the box tuning than most of the pens in this price range. Also some minor feed issues may arise if you try to use it as a daily writer or leave it filled for a little while without using it. Still my favorite pen but id expect it to write a bit better out of the box for a pen of this price. Does post ok but not super securely.

This is a very nice looking pen. As others have mentioned, the weight of the pen and width of the barrel make writing a bit easier. When the pen works, it's wonderful, and glides smoothly across the paper in clean lines. Unfortunately, I've had problems with inconsistent ink flow. When the pen doesn't work, I have to rewrite the same strokes several times to get it started working again, which makes for clunky and unattractive script. See below an attempt to write out the alphabet. I've tried a few different inks without much improvement.

This is a big, eye-catching pen. It's heavy. The carbon fiber and rose gold are a bold combination. I love it. I have seen some people complain about the nib, but I have had no problem. I have had it for a couple of weeks with Private Reserve Tanzanite in it, and it is what I have been writing with. It's not uncomfortable, and I do enjoy it. I kind of want to try the rose gold colored flex nib (maybe later).SO, here is my quibble. The cap does not post. I have a dozen or so fountain pens and this is the only one that doesn't really post. Sure, you can pop the cap on the end, but it clearly isn't designed for it. It sits of kilter and seems like it just wants to fall off. I probably wouldn't have bought the pen if I knew it didn't post properly. I'm kind of glad I didn't know. For ~100 dollars, it's a lovely pen and a fun addition to my collection.

It rites real real good and I am tickled.
