Made from red precious resin, the edition symbolizes the beginning of Enzo Ferrari´s passion for motor racing. Its color is inspired by the special Color “Rosso 70 Anni” which is a special red color developed when the Scuderia Ferrari celebrated its 70th birthday representing various iconic red tones throughout the years. The cap top is crowned with a Montblanc emblem embedded in a metal grid on a yellow surface, paying homage to birth town Modena. The back of the cap shows the prancing horse, the famous emblem of Ferrari cars. The clip in metal is adorned with a famous quote by Enzo: “You cannot describe passion, you can only live it.” The cone shows two important dates in the early career of Enzo Ferrari. The handcrafted Au 585 solid gold nib is engraved with the image of a “Ferrari 250 GTO” steering wheel and one of Enzo´s nicknames – “Pilota”.

I originally ordered one of these pens, with OB nib, in 2021 and then cancelled the order 4 months later when it became apparent Montblanc was having problems in fulfilling special nib orders.
Fast forward a year and the Enzo Ferrari popped up in Appelboom’s Black Friday sale. Not only that, but I was lucky enough to snag what I suspect was the only OM nib available. The pen itself is even better than I expected, comfortable in the hand with good weight and balance, and it looks attractive. Best of all though is the OM nib, which is a superlatively smooth writer.
I got the pen at a bargain price (thank you Joost and all at Appelboom) but it’s so good I wouldn’t begrudge having paid full price.

Excellent pen, beautiful design and smooth writing experience, but the Black Friday discount make my deal price a little bit regret.

I love its colours – red and yellow – Ferrari’s traditional colours. This is a very modern design with elegant Ferrari details. It’s very special. My purchased nib is “F”, a traditional 146-based soft nib. Excellent writing experience.

Love the design. Took a while to receive but the wait was worth it.
