Appearance
Monteverde Regatta Fountain Pen
The Monteverde Regatta Fountain Pen is regularly available in 5 colors, but is also available in the Monteverde Regatta Limited Edition Northern Lights fountain pen color. Pictured in this review is the Blue Carbon color. The barrel and the cap have alternating bands of colored metal and carbon fiber, that come together to make a stunning look. Each color Regatta also comes with a black nib to match the black carbon fiber. All in all, it’s a great looking pen.
Qualities
One great quality of the Monteverde Regatta Fountain Pen is the magnetic cap. The cap removes easily, stays secure, and even can be posted. While posted, the magnetic cap will attach to the back end of the body. The Regatta is a very affordable all-metal pen and takes standard international cartridges and converters, and even comes with a converter and two ink cartridges. One thing to consider is that this is a heavy pen. It weighs almost 2 oz.! For those of you who like some good heft, this is a pen for you!
Performance
We, of course, had to put this pen to the test. For this review, we used the Blue Carbon Monteverde Regatta Fountain Pen with a Medium Nib. Also, we used KWZ El Dorado ink for this review. The nib on this pen worked great, right out of the box. The medium nib laid down a nice wet line, and we were able to produce some great shading. Writing was also very nice and smooth, with just a touch of feedback.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Monteverde Regatta Series Fountain Pen is a great pen for beginners, or for collectors. If you’re looking for a hefty pen, or for an innovative capping system, the Regatta is for you! Please don’t forget to comment below and to share this with your friends!
