In 1924, after a restyling of its production which was divided into different ranges of quality, Montblanc began using the Meisterstuck (masterpiece) name to indicate its higher-end pens, coming with a lifetime warranty, also adopting the marking of the 4810 monogram with reference to the Mont Blanc height. The same masterpiece title was also adopted in the foreign market, and are therefore pen were marked Masterpiece in Britain and the United States, Cheuf d'Ouvre in France and Capolavoro in Italy.
However, one must keep in mind that the Meisterstück name does not identify a precise model or line, as the company tries to make it to appear in the historiography published in its official website where, unfairly, a 149 that originates instead in 1952 is reported in 1924. This pen is also grandly referred to as the "symbol par excellence" for the culture of writing, trying to figure that it is the same model, "an icon of a timeless design", of such an high quality that it always remained in production until since 1924 (the quotes are cited from the description on the website cited at March 9, 2009, subsequently amended).
In realtà i modelli del 1924 non hanno nulla a che fare con la 149 ed il nome Meisterstück non identifica affatto uno specifico modello o una linea di modelli, ma semplicemente la denominazione che da allora e nei decenni successivi è stata usata dalla Montblanc per indicare quelli che di volta in volta l'azienda considerava essere i suoi modelli di punta. Inizialmente inoltre indicava anche la garanzia a vita, in modo analogo alla denominazione Lifetime usata dalla Sheaffer. I vari modelli a cui veniva attribuito il nome Meisterstück si sono infatti susseguiti negli anni con linee molto diverse fra loro, a partire dagli originali degli anni '20, per passare alle serie 100, 120 e 130, alla successiva serie 140 e alle serie 640 e 740.
