Does Montblanc still offer real entry-level pens in the range of 100 to 150 euros, and what is behind the conspicuously small models like the Mozart?

Montblanc Montblanc — general FAQ entry

Montblanc has, for some years, deliberately no longer produced actual entry-level pens; the Scenium and Noblesse lines are discontinued, and from the Scenium there was never a fountain pen. The smallest current writing instrument is the Meisterstück 114 Mozart, which, however, is strictly speaking not a writing instrument but a notation device for short notes with style and is not suitable for longer texts. For everyday school use, therefore, a regular Meisterstück or robust brands like Lamy, Pelikan or Rotring are recommended; for children the too narrow, fragile barrel of the Mozart is regarded as unsuitable. Anyone wanting to use a Montblanc on the road should carry it in a case in the inside pocket to avoid damage and loss.
