Description from the seller

At auction we present the undisputed queen of fountain pens: the Montblanc Meisterstück 149, universally known as the "Diplomat" for its imposing presence and its history tied to the signing of the most significant international treaties. This specimen represents the pinnacle of Hamburg craftsmanship, characterized by its iconic cigar-shaped design in premium glossy black resin with gold-plated fittings that emphasize its timeless authority.

The beating heart of this masterpiece is the majestic 18‑carat bi‑color gold nib, handcrafted and adorned with intricate engravings, including the famous number "4810" that celebrates Mont Blanc’s height. The pen adopts the traditional integrated piston-filling system, a high‑precision mechanical solution that provides generous ink capacity and a ritual filling experience that every true enthusiast appreciates.

The specimen is offered as a Full Set, complete with its original box and the "Service Guide" manual, ensuring the integrity of the kit for the collector. The conditions are superb: the resin retains its original brilliance and the nib is flawless, ready to provide smooth, characterful writing on paper. The clip ring clearly bears the individual serial number, a fundamental detail that certifies its authenticity and its place in modern high-end production.
