AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
We present at auction an authentic icon of timeless elegance: the Montblanc Meisterstück Classique Ballpoint Pen (model 164), rendered in a sophisticated platinum-plated variant. This timeless writing instrument perfectly embodies the essence of the renowned German maison, offering a universally appealing design and uncompromising mechanical reliability, ideal for accompanying your days with style and precision.
The barrel and cap are masterfully crafted in Montblanc's famous black precious resin, whose smooth, deeply glossy surface creates a magnificent and luxurious contrast with the bright solid-metal details, entirely and finely platinum-plated. The aesthetics are defined by the classic elegance of the slender clip and the three distinctive rings, the central one being thicker and bearing the clear engraving of the brand name. At the rounded top of the cap rises the pure white six-point star, the universal symbol of prestige and artisanal mastery. On the upper ring of the clip, the individual serial number is regularly engraved.
Technically speaking, this prestigious example is configured as a ballpoint pen, operated by a fluid and fail-safe twist mechanism. The photographs depicting the pen carefully disassembled into its main components confirm the perfect integrity of the solid brass internal mechanical structure and the surgical precision of the threads, also showing the original refill ready for writing.
The condition of this masterpiece is exceptional, effectively like new. The item shows no signs of use: the precious resin appears splendidly untouched, glossy, and free of scratches, as do the sparkling platinum-plated finishes, completely bright and perfect. In keeping with our usual policy of total transparency, a detail visible in the close-up shots is noted: on the side of the cap, parallel to the clip, there is a finely executed laser-engraved personalisation reading the name Cropped to “Manuel Cobo” in elegant italic font, finely filled in silver color. Completing this lot, the pen is offered accompanied by the corresponding “Service Guide” booklet.
