Product Name Montblanc Writers Edition Schiller. See the Montblanc page on this pen model. #06961/18000 (14000 were sold individually and 4000 were sold in sets).
Manufacturer and Year Montblanc, Germany -- 2000.
Length 5-3/8".
Filling System Piston filler. Tested and working well.
Color Black barrel with amber cap. The trim is striped and gold plated. The clip ring has cut outs and the 3/16" band beneath the piston knob is ribbed. Schiller's signature is to the right of the clip.
Nib Medium 18k Nib. The nib is slightly springy and is decorated with a crossbow as a reference to William Tell from Schiller's play of the same name.
Condition Excellent + condition. The pen has some handwear on the barrel and microscratching on the clip and cap band. The amber material used for the cap has texture and some small marks, which is something we have seen on this model in the past so we think that the material starts that way. The pen looks great in general, but you do see signs of usage. The pen ships in a Montblanc Writers Edition Schiller box, with booklet and outer printed sleeve. (Does not include the white cardboard sleeve.)
