AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In this auction we present an iconic and always sought-after piece, the perfect writing instrument for everyday work use: the Montblanc Meisterstück Classique Platinum Line Ballpoint Pen (Model P164).

The Classique model (164) is undoubtedly the most famous and widely used pen of the house. This fascinating Platinum Line variant abandons the classic yellow gold in favor of more modern, sober, and “glacial” platinum-plated finishes, which create a wonderful contrast with the cigar-shaped body made from deep black precious resin. On the cap dome is obviously present the iconic white star emblem.

The piece is configured as a Ballpoint Pen, with the traditional and reliable twist mechanism. The excellent photographs of the disassembled instrument confirm the presence of the robust internal metal threading, synonymous with quality and absolute originality of the product.

Now let’s move to the condition, where your usual transparency is essential. Mechanically the pen is perfect. Aesthetically, the resin and platings are in excellent condition, glossy and with only typical micro-scratches (hairlines) from use. On the clip there is a personalized engraving with the initials "J. P. W.". The engraving was done in elegant cursive.
