Description from the seller
Here we present a famous classic of writing signed Montblanc: the Meisterstück Classique Roller Pen (Model 163) Gold Line.
The body and cap of this iconic instrument, characterized by its sleek cigar-like form, are made in traditional black precious resin. The deep black of the resin creates an elegant contrast with the bright yellow-gold plated finishes, which include the classic teardrop clip and the three institutional rings. At the crown of the cap sits the famous six-point white star, an unequivocal symbol of the house.
From a technical point of view, it is a Roller (rollerball), characterized by a removable cap that can be conveniently slid over the end of the barrel during use. As documented in the photos of the pen disassembled, the instrument uses the practical Montblanc standard refills for roller or fineliner, easily replaceable by unscrewing the grip section from the main body.
Regarding its condition, the item is generally in good shape, but with a fundamental peculiarity that must be openly stated. The precious resin retains good luster, showing the physiological micro-scratches (hairlines) typical of normal use. NOTE: On the side of the cap there is a conspicuous and deep personalized engraving that reads "VNU NLG 2.75 billion". This specific engraving, very likely commemorating an important financial agreement or corporate milestone (NLG denoted the Dutch guilders), personalizes and strongly marks the aesthetics of the object.
