Montblanc
Description
In celebration of the Meisterstück centenary in 2024, Montblanc pays tribute to the origins of the iconic writing instrument in a collection inspired by the spirit of the Paris Olympic Games in 1924. By a stroke of luck, 1924 marks, for the brand, the launch of the writing instrument that became one of its most coveted masterpieces, and, in that same year, the Olympic Summer Games were held in Paris. At their core, both Montblanc and the Paris 1924 Olympic Games embody, with master craftsmen and sporting heroes, the pursuit of the best possible human achievement. This Special Edition in precious resin with a warm shade of red – the official red colour of the Paris 1924 Games – features a handcrafted solid Au585/14k gold nib embellished with a javelin thrower – a nod to a vintage Olympic poster of that year. The Olympic Rings are part of the Olympic Heritage logo engraved on the cap top ring, with an encircling wreath of leaves, reminiscent of those presented as the highest accolade to victors at the Olympic Games of Antiquity. The cap itself is engraved with the words “Olympic Games Paris 1924” within a frame inspired by the cover of the official Games report. The anniversary cap ring bears both “1924” and “2024”, symbolising the importance of both years. Crowning the edition is the Montblanc emblem on the cap top embedded in precious coral-coloured resin, the signature colour of Montblanc. International Olympic Committee – All Rights Reserved

The name Montblanc has always been associated with precision writing tools that reflect the pinnacle of artistic processing and technical sophistication. Founded in 1906 in Hamburg, Germany, where it resides till today, it has quickly gained a reputation as a manufacturer of quality pens. For her logo, the company chose a six-pointed white star symbolizing the permanently snowed peak of Europe's highest mountain, Montblanc. The analogy between the highest apex of the Pole and the tip of the writing instruments is shown on the tip of the fountain pens, where the number 4810 and hence the height of the mountain is located. Montblanc pens were characterized by a simple system and a unique design that caused interest around the world. The Meisterstück model, introduced in 1924, became an instant legend. This collection is one of the best selling ones even today.
The company had a really hard time in the war, but it was finally successful. It gradually expanded its portfolio with high-quality leather accessories made in Italy, jewelry made in Germany, and in 1997 eventually entered into the world of watchmakers. The debut in the Meisterstück collection was a success. The transformation to a serious watchmaker began a decade later, when management decided to purchase the old Swiss Minerva factory. Building on a rich history, the real art of watchmaking began. The first IN-HOUSE caliber tagged as MB R100 immediately launched a new stage in the Montblanc watches. Other machines and IN-HOUSE modules have been gradually added. The world of haute horlogerie has been enriched with beautiful pieces with tourbillon and other masterful complications. Montblanc is no longer just a manufacturer of stationery, it is also a wonderful artistic watches, quality leather and decent accessories that will enhance your personal style.

After 2018, Omega set a very fast pace, introducing a relatively large number of interesting limited editions, which, as is usually the case, did not even reach Slovakia. For example, 1,969 pieces is half the annual production for some brands, but Omega sells out such a limited edition in one afternoon (Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Apollo 11, 50th Anniversary). I can say that I am slowly getting used to this style of work:
