AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Montblanc 392 exhibits fully functional technical performance, maintaining the firmness and precision characteristic of the brand. The push button mechanism operates correctly, providing a stable lead advancement without play, indicating that the internal structure retains its mechanical integrity. The return of the push button is uniform, suggesting that the spring and guide system are not critically worn.

The metal clip retains its original rigidity, ensuring proper attachment without lateral play. The area of the metal support responsible for guiding the lead is in good operational condition, allowing continuous and uninterrupted writing. The piece accepts compatible standard refills without difficulty, confirming that the internal channel has not suffered deformations.

Although the body shows aesthetic marks of use and the passage of time, these do not affect its functionality. The resin maintains its structural solidity and shows no cracks that could compromise the operation of the mechanism. The engraving of the model and the Montblanc signature are well defined, confirming its authenticity and proper material preservation.

Overall, the Montblanc 392 offers stable and reliable technical performance, suitable for both daily use and integration into a collection of classic writing instruments.

The mechanical pencil comes with a period-appropriate brand box for its proper preservation.

Good auction!
