As a long time collector of artisan fountain pens I must say that this is the worst designed pen they produced imho

Saw it some months ago when it was shown together with the whole range of new products for 2023. Simple collaboration piece with Ferrari but really no Montblanc-DNA shown here. Technically nicely done but that is it.
Re the price: this is hilarious! Usually you pay around 40-50 kEuro for an Artisan edition which has a maximum production of 100 pieces. The Artisan editions with about 300 limitations cost 30 kEuro. So this one is a rip-off as far as I am concerned. On the other hand it is a different target group, not the regular artisan customer. I really wonder if they can sell al 599 pieces at that price point...

This week we attended a local presentation of the new Montblanc Ferrari Stilema SP3 Limited Edition 599 fountain pen. An artisanal writing piece created by Montblanc and Ferrari that pays homage to the new Ferrari Daytona SP3. Photo courtesy of Montblanc ...

These fountain pens are out of my purchasing power, but it is fascinating to see and handle these marvels and I can completely see why two guests in our small party put their names down for them.

I really liked it, although it does look quite unique and technical for Montblanc. I thought the reference to the transaxle was very clever and nicely executed.
Thanks for commenting

I am not a collector, but I am a fountain pen user. I was given a black Meisterstück when I was 16 and it has remained in constant use since. I can see why the design is polarizing for pen collectors.

I have seen this being teased on the MB website and was curious. Thanks for the pictures and writeup. Did I read the price right, 30,500 Euros?? That's $32,000+ in USD, I'll pass!
