Dupont Ltd Edition 24 Hours Le Mans Writing Kit
The world famous 24 hours of Le Mans roared through its 100th anniversary on June 10th and 11th. S.T. Dupont has created a modern, innovative collection that celebrates the two legendary French brands, icons in their individual fields. Their alliance yields several collections that bear the banner of French excellence. Travel through the Prestige collection, the ultimate luxury collector kit, to immerse yourself in the experience of the famous endurance car race through the creative representation only S.T. Dupont could imagine. The XL Eternity luxury writing instrument highlights the iconic colors of the 24 hours of Le Mans race. The light blue color is symbolic of French racing cars in the 50's and 60's as well as the blue sky during the day of the race and is accented by a rich gold color symbolizing the yellow at nightfall and sunrise. The pen is displayed in a trophy pen stand and sports a design mimicking that of a luxury sports car. The pen features an interchangeable fountain pen grip section and rollerball grip section allowing the user to choose which mode to write with. The set includes a cartridge/converter fill or rollerball refill. The Prestige Collection takes the iconic trophy, helmet, and curb colors of the Le Mans circuit and gives it extra horsepower by including a replica of the iconic race car seen on the track. The stripes, numbers, and sponsors are all represented on this emblem of the company and luxury sector. Blue lacquer and a finish in yellow gold are readily recognizable colors of the circuit, along with the symbol for day and night to honor this 24‐hour race. The base of the pen resembles the standard 24 Hours of Le Mans trophy while the Le Grand Dupont design pays homage to the aerodynamic lines of a sports car. Each set comes with an intricately detailed model car shaped like the luxury racing cars found on the Le Mans race track. The marks of the company and of the luxury sector, as well as those of the automobile world (stripes on the car, number, sponsors) are featured on this exciting display piece.
