Montblanc engraves 4810 on its nibs, a height Mont Blanc no longer reaches.
The figure has stood on every Meisterstück nib since about 1930, the mountain’s height in meters as it was given then. Surveyors measure the summit every two years, and the wind keeps reshaping the snow and ice on top. Their latest survey, in 2025, put it at 4,807.3.
