02 / Collector summary
The reference at a glance.
A Montblanc Writers Edition Agatha Christie, 1993 — the first Writers Edition the house made. Rollerball, so it is capless: twist the knurled cap and the tip extends from the barrel. Black precious resin, an 925 sterling silver snake clip with two ruby eyes, an ivory-and-cream cap star in place of the usual white one, the Agatha Christie script signature on the cap, and MONTBLANC on the cap band.

03 / Editorial story
A reason to look again.
The tells are the point. The snake clip is sterling silver marked 925, with the two ruby eyes set either side of its head; the cap star is ivory rather than white; the signature is script rather than block. Those four details are what separate a genuine Christie from the copies, so they lead.
04 / Provenance
The record travels with it.
The pen itself is genuine. The rollerball belongs to the 25,000-piece ballpoint / rollerball series; no second pen accompanies it.
