PREOWNED
VERY GENTLY USED
GENUINE MONTBLANC MEISTERSTUCK CLASSIQUE 164 TWIST-TOP BALLPOINT INK PEN with the BOX, MANUAL (less the International Warranty Certificate card) and EXTRA GENUINE MONTBLANC REFILL (BLUE and BLACK) CARTRIDGES
.
I originally received this beautiful ink pen as a promotion gift from my employees back in the day.
I owned this pen for over 25 years old and had completely forgotten about it until it was recently rediscovered, along with one other Montblanc (rollerball style) pen, while cleaning out storage boxes containing items from my old office I packed away after my retirement.
Since I’ve retired I really don’t have a need to hold onto either of the pens so I decided to list them both and provide the opportunity for someone else to enjoy them as much as I did.
Of course, as expected, since the pen had been in storage for over 10 years, the ink cartridge had dried.
So, I purchased two brand new genuine Montblanc medium BLUE ink cartridges so I could test the instrument and illustrate it was working properly.
Refer to description # 11 for more details.
Also included with this listing is another unused medium BLACK ink cartridge I found along with this pen.
Please refer to description photo # 1 to verify what is included in this listing and for more details about what I have described.
The Montblanc Meisterstück Classique ballpoint pen features the Montblanc's proprietary black “precious resin” body with gorgeous gold-coated details that is surmounted by the Montblanc iconic trademark six-pointed snowcap white-star emblem that evokes the company’s highest quality and distinction.
As previously stated, this pen comes with the sturdy black plastic (made in Holland) storage box that has a luxurious white and black silk-lined interior, the International Service Certificate booklet, a colorful protective wrapper, the outer factory cardboard protective sleeve and (2) two additional replacement ink cartridges.
I no longer have the outer cardboard box this all came inside.
Please refer to the description photos # 1, # 9, # 10 and # 12 for more details about what I have described.
This pen was extremely well taken care of and remains in excellent condition as can be verified in the description photos.
The gold-coated clip band atop the pen features the finely engraved country name “
GERMANY
” and a nine character “
serial number
” (ID1150967) for this individual pen.
Note, there is no “
PIX
” stamp on the underside of the clip; Montblanc only began incorporating the use of the “
PIX
” trademark stamp on their pen clips in
1997
.
Refer to description photos # 5 and # 6 to see the close-up images and for more details about what I have described.
The pen also features three gold-coated bands in the middle of the pen barrel.
It is said these (3) three rings represent the three men (
Wilhelm Dziambor, Christian Lausen and Claus Johannes)
who ultimately set Montblanc on its journey to become the worldwide brand it is today.
The center band is slightly raised and is flanked by two thinner flush bands.
The center band is also finely engraved with the company name “
MONTBLANC
” and the pen’s model name “
MEIESTERSTRUCK
”.
Refer to the description photos for more details about what I have described.
The Montblanc proprietary “precious resin” glossy black barrel of the pen remains in absolutely beautiful condition.
Also, as seen in the description photos, the top of the pen is adorned with the iconic Montblanc proprietary “precious resin” inlaid white colored “snowcap” emblem.
Please refer to the description photos for more details about what I have described.
As all astute Montblanc pen admirers and owners recognize, and as is confirmed by the Montblanc Company, the black “precious resin” pen bodies emit a deep “reddish” hue color whenever it is placed in front of a high-intensity brilliant colored light.
Although the photo was difficult to capture, you can easily verify in viewing description photo # 8 that the pen positively emits the desired “reddish” hue color thus further confirming its authenticity.
As previously stated, this pen comes with the original black plastic storage case with a luxurious white and black silk-lined interior, the International Service Certificate booklet, the outer Montblanc factory cardboard protective sleeve covering and (2) two additional replacement ink cartridges.
Unfortunately I no longer have the outside cardboard box all this came inside.
Montblanc writing implements are highly sought after pieces as they are recognized as being the pinnacle of classiness and are beautiful looking pens.  Often, these pens become heirloom pieces and are handed down to the next generation of up and coming professionals and business executives.
Overall, this Montblanc Classique Meisterstück ballpoint pen remains in stunningly beautiful condition despite being over 25-years old.
The high-quality and exquisite craftsmanship of this pen will amaze you.
When you hold the pen in your hand, and begin writing, you can instantly identify it as a Montblanc pen.
The pen writes incredibly smooth and is extremely comfortable to hold.
If you are looking for an impressive statement piece for business use or pleasure, this is the pen that will more than satisfy and full-fill your desire and need.
I copied the below information about the Montblanc Company and their high-quality and coveted ink pens for your further review and consideration.
The Montblanc
Company was founded in 1906 by a Hamburg banker named Alfred Nehemias and, a Berlin engineer named August Eberstein.
The company began producing simple pens under the company name Simplizissiumus-Füllhalter in Berlin.
In 1907, the company moved to Hamburg and changed its name to Simplo Filler Pen Co. GmbH and was incorporated under that name in 1908.
After a short period of time Wilhelm Dziambor, Christian Lausen, and later Claus Johannes Voss assumed control of the business whereupon they built it into the world renowned company it is today.
A famous trademark identified with the Montblanc Company is the white stylized six-pointed snowcap with rounded edges.  This design represents the Mont Blanc snowcap as seen from above.  The symbol was formally adopted by the company in 1913.
The current company name “Montblanc” wasn’t adopted until in 1934.
The company is most known for its luxury pens and also designs and distributes bags, small leather goods, and watches.
Montblanc makes several models of pens, with the Meisterstück (fountain pen) representing the cornerstone model.
Each is slightly different; however Meisterstück models created after 1990 have a serial number located on the ring at the top of the clip.
The barrels of pens are made of black “precious resin” which will reveal a “reddish” hue under strong lighting; if the pen in question does not have these attributes then it is possibly a fake.
