The Meisterstück Around the World in 80 Days collection is inspired by the famous adventure novel by Jules Verne. The Classique Fountain Pen, adorned with dark blue precious resin, tells the epic journey of Mr. Fogg and Passepartout. The duo begins the final leg from Yokohama back to London via the United States, crossing the vast American continent by train. Dive into the intricate details: a train elegantly laser-etched on the cap, a safety chain pattern on the cone, reflecting a crucial moment when Passepartout disconnects the train from the locomotive to save the crew attacked by Sioux. The design of the cap captures pressure valves and the rising smoke of the locomotive, while the clip features a red lacquered heart card suit, symbolizing the bond between Phileas Fogg and Princess Aouda.
Moreover, decks of cards represent Fogg's bold bet to complete the journey in just 80 days. The top of the cap features the embossed timeline of the journey - 36 days from Yokohama to London, culminating in the grand total of 80 days around the world.
This writing instrument is held up by a handmade 14K gold nib marked with 14/11 and 21/12 – a reminder of Mr. Fogg's departure from Yokohama on November 14 and his ambitious plan to return to the London club on December 21 to win the bet. It is also decorated with an image of a hot air balloon, a reference to Jules Verne's first adventure novel.
