Editor's Note

The Meisterstück Around the World in 80 Days collection is inspired by the famous adventure novel by Jules Verne. Montblanc Meisterstück Around the World in 80 Days Classique Fountain Pen in blue precious resin draws on the first part of the journey.

The main character travels, mainly via steamboat, from London to Bombay, crossing the Mediterranean ocean and through the Suez canal. The cap features a milled pattern of the key elements of the novel: ocean waves, card suits, and a cartouche with a lasered steamboat. The cap top is embossed with the length of the journey, 18 days from London to Bombay and 80 days in total. The writing instrument is finished with a hand-crafted, 14K rhodium-coated nib embellished with the hot-air balloon and the start and end date of the adventurous journey.

Care Instructions

• Your writing instrument is manufactured from distinctive materials, such as precious resin, metal, wood, mother-of-pearl, and precious stones. To enjoy your Montblanc writing instrument for a long time, please protect it from any breakage or damage and do not expose it to heat or humidity.
• Montblanc recommends cleaning your fountain pen approximately every three months to preserve its pristine condition. Especially if the ink has dried up due to lack of use, the feeder system is blocked, a different color of ink is to be used or the ink flow becomes irregular or stops. For cleaning, use only lukewarm water without any chemical products. It is impossible to prevent condensation after the cleaning process inside the cap. Condensation can dissolve traces of dried ink, causing a color change in the new ink. Therefore, always be careful to clean the nib and cap with a damp lint-free cloth. To avoid leakage, keep the writing instrument fully filled with new ink and carry the fountain pen with the nib pointing upwards.
• Important note: It is particularly important to clean the fountain pen regularly if permanent ink is used, as the high solids content of the ink can lead to deposits forming in the feed system. It should be cleaned approximately every two weeks.
• We recommend keeping your Montblanc writing instrument in a Montblanc pouch for protection. When not using your Montblanc writing instrument for a longer period of time, we kindly advise removing all ink out of the fountain pen. After a longer storage period, Montblanc recommends cleaning your fountain pen to preserve its pristine condition.
