STARWALKER
New objects find a direct way to the heart, if they contain echoes of the familiar. This approach is impressively reflected in the StarWalker collections. The new generation of writing instruments consists of two series, Resin and Metal Rubber, both of which comprise a fountain pen, a ballpoint pen and a fineliner pen. A first glance at these new pens reveals just how far the modern, purist design departs from classic Montblanc design, while at the same time remaining absolutely true to the brand’s roots. What catches the eye immediately is the slim, dynamic shape of the pens, the typical three-ring design and the Montblanc signature on the ring of the almost architectural clip. These fascinating details are crowned by the revolutionary new interpretation of the legendary brand symbol: Shining from the transparent top of the cap, the white star seems almost to float, lending a new dimension to the name StarWalker. The StarWalker collection – pens for the modern age – is available (resin version from June 2003; metal-rubber version from October 2003) in all Montblanc boutiques worldwide and from selected jewellers and specialist retailers.

DESIGNER DIARIES
Made by hand, the kind of leather used and the use of a contrasting stitching is known as Sellier. The name Sellier - Finish, comes from the French saddle maker profession. The exciting new range of diaries (various sizes and functions), refills and colours make this a must have for the season.

TIMEWALKER
Nomen est omen – a philosophy implied in the name: TimeWalker. The puristic concept combines the straight and architectural shape of the design with the simplicity of polished stainless steel. The result is strikingly dynamic and unmistakably masculine. Water resistant to 30m, an impressive 42mm diameter case frames a no-nonsense dial – available in black or silver – with five large Arabic numerals, small second and date protected by bombee sapphire glass with antireflex coating. The stainless steel brackets and profile of the bracelet are finely lined. Individual preferences can be expressed in the choice of straps - a sporty stainless steel bracelet or an elegant black calfskin strap. TimeWalker represents a new Zeitgeist of modern unpretentious luxury: dynamic, discreet, understated. The TimeWalker collection transcends time and is thus so unquestionably Montblanc. The Montblanc TimeWalker Collection will be available in all Montblanc boutiques and at selected jewellers.
