Many luxury goods brands also make pens. But Montblanc is different - they've been a pen company all through their history. While they have expanded their range, making beautiful watches, notebooks, leather goods, and travel accessories, writing instruments are still at their core. They are one of the many pen companies who has moved the piston filling system forward over the years, and they created what we now think of as 'standard' ink cartridges. If you think of a 'classic' luxury fountain pen, it's likely the image in your mind is a Montblanc Meisterstuck. The StarWalker is Montblanc at their more contemporary, with elements of the design inspired by astronauts looking back down to the blue sphere of Earth, and Nasa's motto when searching for life - "follow the water". The thoroughly modern styling is finished perfectly by the grey ball incorporating the Montblanc logo, displayed under the translucent dome. The Black Cosmos is inspired by the wonders of space exploration and mankind's ever-more ambitious forrays into the unknown. The barrel is intended to reflect the depth of Space and is reflected in the shiny precious resin barrel and the black PVD-coated trimmings. Accepts Montblanc ballpoint refills. Measures: 134.5 x 13.1 mm; Weighs 55.25g.
