Montblanc Meisterstück Solitaire Doué Gold & Black ballpoint pen, made in Germany, with a black resin body and a gold-plated cap featuring vertical ribbing, 14 cm long and 1.2 cm diameter, serial number IY1013740, in very good condition, in working order, and supplied with the original rigid box.
Description from the seller
Here we present a true classic of formal elegance, a piece that perfectly embodies the luxurious and traditional aesthetics of the Hamburg house: the Montblanc Meisterstück Solitaire Doué Gold & Black Ballpoint Pen.
The term "Doué" in Montblanc nomenclature indicates the harmonious meeting of two noble materials. In this model, the lower barrel is made from the classic and extremely resistant black glossy precious resin, while the upper cap is fully plated in yellow gold. What makes the cap design particularly sophisticated is the refined vertical ribbing (pinstripe pattern), which catches the light, creating elegant reflections and offering an extremely pleasant tactile sensation. To complete the bi‑color contrast are the nib tip and the three classic gold-plated rings, along with the iconic white star on the top.
The operating mechanism is a continuous twist (twist), a solid and reliable system for advancing the nib. Photos of the pen disassembled confirm the integrity of the robust brass threaded connection and the presence of an original refill. The clip ring regularly bears the individual serial number.
The condition is to be considered excellent overall. The black resin barrel shows a very beautiful mirror polish, with rare and very light micro-scratches due to normal use. The gold cap retains a vivid and saturated plating, free of oxidation or significant metal loss; as is physiological for smooth or ribbed gold surfaces exposed to daily use, only very slight and natural signs of handling are noticeable. The lot comes complete with its original Montblanc rigid box.
