This beautiful pen was sent to me by John, which is clearly an incredible generous gesture. I love this pen: the weight, size, and feeling of it are magnificent and it writes just beautifully too. I have also done a full review of this pen.
Today, we will have a look at what has been my grail pen for years. I have not yet done a full review of this particular pen, but I have done a full review of the Visconti Opera Master Demo, which is the same pen in a different finish.

The OMAS 360 Magnum is one of my favourite pens ever, but how does it stack up to the newer version (I think OMAS referred to it as the “vintage” version, to distinguish it from the redesigned 360 model, which is a completely different pen that doesn’t have the pronounced triangular design)?
Time for a Montblanc threesome: expensive, really expensive, and super expensive! A kind thank you to Joost from Appelboom Pennen who lent me the Firenze.
