Montblanc Bohème Doué roller pen in black precious resin with a platinum-plated metal cap, serial BF1754159, Germany engraved on the metal detailing, 12 cm long and 1.2 cm in diameter, dating to the late 20th century, in very good condition with light signs of wear and age and fully functional.
Description from the seller
In this auction we present an authentic icon of contemporary Montblanc design: the Bohème Doué writing instrument in its most rigorous and masculine version. This model stands out for the "doué" configuration, which blends the warm tactile feel of the black precious resin body with the technical luster of the cap in platinum-plated metal, finely worked with geometric engravings.
The peculiarity of this specimen lies in its writing section entirely made of metal, a sought-after technical detail that offers superior balance and a sense of solidity during use, typical of the high-end Bohème models. Being a roller, the pen guarantees a smooth and immediate writing experience, combining the practicality of a ballpoint tip with the saturation of liquid ink. Authenticity is confirmed by the presence of the individual serial number and the inscription "Germany" engraved with the maison’s customary millimetric precision on the metal trim.
Regarding the conservation state, the item shows signs of real use that attest to its nature as a reliable and lived-in work companion. In addition to widespread superficial wear on the resin and on the cap plating, we report with maximum transparency the presence of small dots and surface imperfections (pitting) localized specifically on the silvered metal writing section. These marks, natural on a tool of this age that has been handled over time, do not affect the functionality of the mechanism or the quality of the stroke, but define its character as an authentic and unrestored piece.
This lot represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a technical and prestigious variant of the Bohème line, ideal for those who want a luxury "user-grade" instrument for daily use, carrying with it the authority of a leading brand in the world of writing at an accessible market value.
