“Montblanc for BMW” Centennial Fountain Pen

For the past 100 years, BMW has been producing some of the best automobiles in the world, and on the occasion of the brand’s 100th anniversary and the release of the BMW Individual 7 Series THE NEXT 100 YEARS limited edition, luxury maison Montblanc introduces the “Montblanc for BMW” Centennial Fountain Pen, a writing instrument designed to accompany each of the 100 vehicles. 
This limited edition writing instrument is the second collaboration between two (2) luxury brands who share a passion for ground-breaking technological innovation and elegant design. This latest offering follows the creation of a collection of customized leather goods and writing instruments to coincide with the launch of the BMW 7 Series in 2015.
The centennial piston fountain pen is limited to just 100 pieces worldwide, and blends the iconic Montblanc Meisterstück 149 balanced proportions with design details inspired by the elegant and streamlined aesthetics of the new BMW car. Zaim Kamal, Creative Director at Montblanc International, and Karim Habib, Head of BMW Design were inspired by the distinctive pattern used on the BMW Individual fine-grain Merino leather interior of the new car, and together they created the intricate grid of the skeletonized metal cap and barrel. 
Through the cut-out rhodium-plated grid pattern, the vibrant blue of the transparent precious resin mirrors the unique colour of the car lacquering. In reference to the BMW 7 Series, the Au750 rhodium-plated gold nib is engraved with the BMW “7” pattern. Completing the piece is the iconic Montblanc emblem is made of quartz set in black onyx.
 

 
The limited edition writing instrument is accompanied by its own special leather accessory. The blue pen pouch in full-grain calfskin referring to the colour of the car lacquering features a compartment for the fountain pen. The leather is embossed with the skeleton pattern featured on the writing instrument’s design with a Montblanc emblem inside a palladium-plated ring.
While BMW has been rethinking the rules of automotive design, Montblanc has been enhancing the writing experience through technological innovations and cutting-edge design, guided by its pioneering spirit since 1906. With this latest collaboration, Montblanc unites its passion for fine craftsmanship, perfect functionality and contemporary design with BMW’s forward-thinking approach to performance and breakthrough innovations.
The “Montblanc for BMW” Centennial Fountain Pen accompanies the purchase of the new BMW Individual 7 Series THE NEXT 100 YEARS at BMW dealerships from September 2016.
