Picture it: Hamburg, Germany, 1924. Montblanc (back then still called Simplo) is crafting fine writing instruments, but they realize the people want a “Sunday pen”—kind of like one would wear a "Sunday's best" suit. Imagine having that level of elegance in your life. The artisans, already busy crafting their own personal masterpieces, took the hint and created a writing instrument so good they literally named it “Meisterstück” (German for masterpiece). A hundred years later, the term still fits like a tailored coat.
