A fellow Mont Blanc fan! My two are MBs housed in a MB leather case and they permanently live in my handbag. I used to carry a fountain pen around until it leaked a couple of times in flight. The other is a freebie from Netjet that they gave out at a conference - looks nice and writes really well but I won't get upset if I damaged it by dropping it.
On the other hand, HWMNBO has banned himself from carrying nice pens or anything else easy to lose because he is the master-object-loser
