Montblanc - Meisterstück Diamond Classique (Edición con Diamante) - Fountain pen

A0000005178

The fountain pen is in excellent overall condition, with an impeccable appearance and fully functional construction. It is a superb and highly sought-after example from the German manufacturer Montblanc, belonging to the exclusive Meisterstück collection in its Diamond Classique version, finished in the brand’s iconic high-density black precious resin, combined with high-gloss platinum-plated ornamental details.

The cap and precious-resin barrel retain a deep, mirror-like luster, free of cracks, splits, or severe impact marks, showing only the very slightest surface micro-scratches resulting from extremely careful handling. The pen is distinguished above all by the cap crown, where the brand’s traditional white star has been replaced by a transparent resin dome containing a floating natural diamond of approximately 0.03 carats. The gem is hand-cut in the geometric silhouette of the Montblanc emblem, capturing and refracting light in three dimensions with exceptional brilliance as it moves.

Technically, the clip ring—with its clean, polished platinum-plated finish—clearly displays the individual laser-engraved serial number "EU2261801", as well as the country-of-origin inscription "GERMANY"; these details unequivocally certify the piece’s authenticity. The three central platinum-plated rings on the cap retain their clean reliefs, and the "MONTBLANC - MEISTERSTÜCK" engraving is perfectly defined.

Removing the cap with its smooth screw mechanism reveals the grip section and the heart of the piece: a superb handcrafted two-tone solid 14-karat gold nib (14K / Au 585) with delicate rhodium-plated details. The nib is in magnificent structural condition, with perfectly aligned tines and no deformation. Its classic brand engravings are clean and free of old ink residue, including the number "4810", representing the height of the legendary European peak. The nib has a Medium (M) point, ideal for its smoothness and balance in writing, as confirmed by the original factory sticker bearing the letter "M", which remains attached to the resin barrel.

All in all, this is a discontinued, high-end writing instrument of considerable collectible value, combining the understated Meisterstück design with the exclusivity of fine gemology. It retains its distinguished character and represents a magnificent investment.

Care recommendations:
To ensure the piece remains in optimal condition over the long term, we recommend wiping the precious-resin barrel and platinum-plated components with a dry microfiber cloth after use to remove natural skin oils. We advise using the brand’s own water-based inks and periodically flushing the feed with distilled water when changing ink colors or if the pen will remain unused for an extended period. We also recommend protecting the transparent dome on the cap from direct impacts against hard surfaces to preserve the integrity of the floating diamond.

The lot will be shipped suitably protected in its original white textured hard presentation case, accompanied by its corresponding "Meisterstück Montblanc Diamond Certificate" booklet and the outer black cardboard box.

(Note: The outer cardboard box bears the designation "Rollerball" due to a logistical packaging substitution at the point of origin; however, the case, the diamond certificate of authenticity, and the auctioned fountain pen are strictly original, genuine, and from the same Diamond Classique line.)

Happy bidding!
