Mont Blanc - personal code ink

[Bling72]

Hello all.

I found this link from the Mont Blanc site. It is dating back to 2010.

There's a strong chance that this kind of service, product or ink is absolutely gone now.

However I would appreciate if anyone could shed light on this, anyone found this in a MB Boutique.

Please no negative comments about it's no good it's merely marketing, it's non-constructive.

Actually pretty cool and sinister marketing. I have images of Hubertus Bigend vetting this product before it was introduced to the market.

Yeah but people as you know do buy some things because it is 'exclusive', or that the presentation is exceptional. It is even the case to food.

Such a small portion of vegetables, but placed in a very good formation and they expect you to pay a kings ransom to it.

I simply would like to understand does it mean that you can choose the colour and composition of the ink ? or it's a standard colour ?
Not much of a personalised ink if you cannot choose it. Is it from a list of available inks? or like the be-spoke program they put you in front
of a computer which computes based on the data received.

I do like the extra customer service option that comes with it. The box looks amazing. I like nice presentation boxes, and now I have to make
my own from scratch because in Western Australia you cannot buy any. Custom made anything in Australia costs $1000 at least which is
definately not worth it. It's a piece of wood with glue putting it together.

I saw the mont blanc special edition pen that has a very lovely finish presentation box, but the pen looks even nicer. A VERY heavy pen.

About 3.5k for it.
