From 2009, Montblanc has been paying homage to some exceptional individuals with the Great Characters collection, whose lives and work have made a lasting impact on human civilization.

The clip is a gun paying tribute to his famous scene in the 1956 film “Giant”. The cap ring is engraved with one of James Dean’s most famous quotes: “Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.” Jot down your ideas with James Dean ballpoint pen to see if there is a rebel inside you.
