Montblanc Sartorial 1-Pen Pouch, 198883
The Sartorial collection by Montblanc liberates the wearer with a wholly contemporary look, crafted from traditional processes, many of which are brought to life by the hand of a skilled artisan. The collection celebrates the importance of professionalism with designs that are synonymous with practical and functional purposes. Creative Director Marco Tomasetta has recently revisited the Maison’s Sartorial collection to capture the beauty of handwriting and elevate it to new heights. Take, for example, this Sartorial pen pouch – a symbol of elegance and sophistication. The pouch has been crafted from premium full-grain leather in Cyprus Blue. The zip, which runs down an entire side, offers plenty of space for storing a collection of Montblanc writing instruments inside. The saffiano printed full grain bovine leather is lined with a soft indulgent surface on the inside, while the exterior is stamped with the iconic Montblanc emblem for the perfect finish.
Montblanc Augmented Paper Urban Spirit Black 123676
The Montblanc Augmented Paper Urban Spirit digitiser is perfect for the modern gent and makes for a beautiful compact organiser. The lucky recipient can use the case to carry a paper notebook, where he can write on traditional paper before recording all handwritten notes and sketches in the digitiser. The notes can also be transmitted onto a mobile device using a Bluetooth connection, while the businessman can enjoy a whole host of features on the Montblanc Hub app, too. With the Montblanc Augmented Paper Urban Spirit Black organiser, your loved one can also organise digital notes and present handwritten notes on screen while attending conferences or boardroom meetings. Personal, customised styles can also be explored while the lined paper notebook provides a traditional option for jotting information down while on the go. Adding notes is made extra special too, with Montblanc’s Starwalker Ballpoint pen, crafted in-house and stamped with the signature Montblanc motif.
Montblanc Meisterstück X Olympic Heritage Chamonix 1924 Classique Ballpoint, 131365
The Montblanc Meisterstück X Olympic Heritage Chamonix 1924 Classique Ballpoint was launched to celebrate the centenary of the brand’s prestigious Meisterstuck fountain pen but also pays homage to 100 years since the 1924 Olympic Winter Games held at the foot of the Mont Blanc mountain. Its deep blue-grey precious resin barrel tips its hat to the colours chosen for the Olympics games that year, constituting a perfect Christmas gift idea for any sports-loving individual or Montblanc collector. The official red-orange colour of the Olympics Games 1924 also features on the top of the pen, while the engraved laurel wreaths flank the Olympic rings logo. The cap, completes the entire design, bearing the “Olympic Games Paris 1924” lettering upon its surface. In true Montblanc style, the brand also executes the nib of the fountain pen in luxurious 18ct solid gold, bringing a wholly indulgent essence to the handwriting experience.
Montblanc Meisterstück X Olympic Heritage Chamonix 1924 Solitaire Legrand Fountain Pen F, 131370
The platinum-coated finishes on this Meisterstuck fountain pen make for a rather exquisite luxury writing instrument for the office this Christmas 2024. Once again inspired by the 1924 Olympics and the brand’s debut of the Meisterstuck fountain pen, this Christmas gift idea comes displayed inside an authentic Montblanc presentation box with an official certification document and boasts the Montblanc emblem suspended inside resin on the top of the pen. The Solitaire edition is made from a platinum-coated cap and barrel featuring an engraving of the mountain landscape of the Chamonix valley, and a handcrafted solid 18k white gold nib that has been embellished with a ski jumper, a nod to a vintage Olympic poster of that year. The cap top ring once again features the laurel wreath decoration, together with the Olympic Heritage logo. The anniversary cap ring also bears both “1924” and “2024” years, symbolising the importance of these two dates.
Montblanc Watch Iced Sea Automatic Date MB133300
Nothing beats a luxury wristwatch for Christmas. Stylish and practical, Montblanc watches stand the test of time and are crafted from some of the industry’s finest materials and techniques. The Iced Sea watch collection by the Maison combines robustness with dive tool functionality. This design is inspired by the sun hitting a glacier as it sets over the horizon. The patterned dial itself is a result of a time-honoured technique that creates a unique finish, achieving a full-of-depth look. What many collectors will love about this 1858 Iced Sea watch is its bronze case, which gives the dive watch an old-world charm. Combine this with a 300-meter water resistance and you have a dive tool that you can swim with or take to the bar.
Montblanc equips the watch with a unidirectional rotating bezel in coloured ceramic, as well as a screw-down crown and a titanium caseback that prevents the bronze material from reacting with the skin when worn hour upon hour. Additionally, this watch comes fitted on a black rubber band that can be alternated with a different strap should your loved one wish to switch things up a little, plus the watch runs on a mechanical movement that provides a useful 38-hour power reserve.
If you’d like to gift a Montblanc product to your loved one this year, we offer online finance options as well as a free gift-wrapping service to ensure your Christmas shopping experience runs smoothly this holiday season.
