Montegrappa (Italy’s oldest manufacturer of fine writing implements) has entered a partnership with Warner Bros. under licensing agreement to develop new collection of exclusive fountain and roller inspired by famous DC Comics character Batman- The Dark Knight. Called as the Batman pens, there will be 1939 Batman fountain pens and 1939 Batman roller balls in this limited edition offering with all of them made from aluminum with black anodized finish and the pen clip is made from ruthenium-plated brass giving these pens a very classy dark grey hue, just as one would fing in the Batman’s original costume. The fountain pen will have 18k gold nib with the Batman logo and the surface which is engraved with bats in flight.
In addition to this thumping offering, there will also be 500 sets that have included cufflinks and wristwatch. The cufflinks are jet-black representations of the Batman logo in three dimensions, with the bat shape cut out to expose a surface of carbon fibre and the folding grip carries the Montegrappa logo too. Based on the Montegrappa NeroUno watches, the matching wristwatch is powered by a Swiss-made Ronda quartz movement, housed in a 42mm stainless steel case secure against water ingress to 5atm; with the case is finished in black PVD, with six screws securing the back.
At the 12 o’clock position is the oval Batman logo in nickel, as are the numerals at the 3, 6 and 9 o’clock positions, the dot markers for the remaining hours, and the curved blade hands for the hours and minutes. A sapphire crystal protects the all-black dial and its nickel embellishments and the back is engraved with the Batman logo and relevant serial numbers. Attaching the watch to the wrist is a carbon strap with a black PVD tongue buckle.
The all-black outer boxes bear bats-in-flight patterns, the inner box featuring a large Batman logo on its lid, while the inner lid shows Gotham City at night. Fans of Batman will cherish the Montegrappa Batman pen, cufflinks and wristwatch collection because they are fashioned in the Batcave by Bruce Wayne and his butler, Alfred.
