If Auric Goldfinger swapped gold bricks for pens, he’d have carried Montegrappa’s Goldfinger Special Issue in his pocket. Celebrating 60 years since the iconic James Bond film “Goldfinger,” this writing instrument doesn’t just evoke Bond’s suave style—it might make you feel like a spy with a license to scribble.
Crafted from sandblasted aluminum and brass, the pen gleams with a blunt golden finish that screams sophistication. Its hollow-point cap design pays homage to the gun barrel sequence that’s as quintessential to Bond as martinis and Aston Martins. And with only 707 pieces available, it’s not just a pen; it’s a mission to secure a piece of cinematic history.
The fountain pen version flexes a 14ct gold nib that promises to glide as smoothly as Bond escaping an elaborate death trap. If rollerballs are more your speed, they’ve got you covered too. Each comes packed with a sleek 007 zip case, a companion notebook, and a touch of intrigue worthy of MI6’s Q Branch.
This follows Montegrappa’s 2023 release of the 007 Spymaster Duo Anniversary Edition, proving yet again that the brand has a knack for blending Italian craftsmanship with British espionage flair. Wait. That’s a good thing, right?
For €750 (about 775 USD), you can claim the rollerball, but true aficionados may want to splurge €1,295 (around 1,338 USD) for the fountain pen. After all, in the world of Bond, you don’t just write—you make an impression.
