Montblanc StarWalker Metal & Rubber rollerball/fineliner, with a black rubber body and cap wrapped in a grid-like platinum-plated metal grille, in excellent condition and in working order, serial YS1476622, Germany origin, 20th century, diameter 1.2 cm and length 12 cm.
Description from the seller
In the auction we present one of the most material, tactile variants with the most sharply architectural design of the entire modern line from Hamburg: the Montblanc StarWalker Metal & Rubber Roller Pen.
The StarWalker collection is famous for its dynamic lines, but this specific edition goes further, offering a unique sensory experience. The body and cap are clad in premium matte black rubber, traversed and encased by a precise geometric lattice (grid pattern) of lines in solid platinum-plated metal. This contrast between the warmth and the 'soft' grip of the rubber and the cold gleam of platinum creates a tool with an incredibly technical and contemporary look. To crown the design, the famous transparent dome on the top, inside which the white star emblem floats in the void.
The specimen is configured as Rollerball / Fineliner, equipped with the characteristic screw-on cap. Unlike the ball, the roller offers a smooth, moist, and relaxing writing experience, similar to a fountain pen, but with the practicality of an interchangeable refill. The excellent photos of the disassembled instrument confirm the absolute integrity of the solid metal threading and the front writing unit.
Let’s address the condition, which in this model plays a crucial role: the pen is in overall excellent condition. The key and most reassuring detail for buyers is that the rubber surface is perfectly preserved, intact and free from chips or that sticky effect that sometimes affects these pens when stored in unsuitable environments. The metal lattice and platinum-plated finishes maintain their mirror gloss, presenting exclusively the physiological and very light micro-scratches (hairlines) from normal use.
