Following last year’s extraordinarily popular 007 Spymaster Duo and 007 Special Issue, Montegrappa's newest James Bond chapter uses simplicity and stunning optics to hit the sweet spot between accessibility and collectability.
Like the James Bond franchise itself, Goldfinger Special Issue keeps to a winning formula by returning to the standards of 007 Special Issue, then enhancing them in limited edition with exclusive references to Goldfinger—the 1964 movie many consider to be Bond’s best.
Materials, finishing and presentation on Goldfinger Special Issue stick to the script of 007 Special Issue, reprising its aluminum, brass and steel metalwork, this time retouched end to end with a blunt golden sheen. A limited release of 707 fountain pens and rollerballs reflects the edition’s gold-plated status and the momentum of Goldfinger’s 60th anniversary—celebrated this year by cinephiles and Bond fans alike. Edition numbering is engraved into the rear of the cap’s open-edged base.
The fountain pen's all-aluminum body is oxidized, sandblasted and textured with a knurled, pistol-grip finish on the barrel. Trim is realized in brass, ion-plated and sandblasted, and includes a clip with fluting inspired by Bond’s Walther PPK revolver.
Overt branding details are provided by a debossed 007 logo on the upper barrel and inside the hollow-point cap top: the rifled steel insert that invokes the trademark gun-barrel animation that opens every James Bond movie. Fountain pens have the 007 pistol logo on a custom ø6mm, 14K yellow gold nib (EF, F, M, B, Stub 1.1) and use cartridge/converter filling.
Accessories include a notebook and leatherette zip folio, enhanced with debossing and gold foil-block 007 and Goldfinger logos. Goldfinger Special Issue is supplied in a custom, hot-stamped box. A QR code links to an online owner’s manual and edition booklet.
Please note we are unable to accept a return of this pen for any preferential reason once it has been used with ink. Please thoroughly inspect and dry test the pen before use.

The Zen Of Fine Writing
Sad news, Friends... Our physical store in Biltmore Village has been completely destroyed. It's been devastating for us and has been emotionally hard to process or even get our minds around. The flood waters basically swirled all the way to the ceilings, smashing everything to bits and leaving everything coated in toxic mud.
During our transition we set up a "Current Offerings" shopping page where we are adding new items daily. If you don't see what you're looking for, just let us know and we'll arrange getting it to you, since it's likely that we have it but it's simply not up on our site yet. Keep checking back and you will find something new each time you do! We should have this temporary shopping page expanded to a complete website in the next month.
If any of you feel inclined, we have set up a Go Fund Me site for donations. Here is the link to that: https://www.gofundme.com/f/join-us-in-restoring-a-beloved-local-haven
