The edition is controversially discussed among collectors: some voices feel especially the cap form and the orange-red stone on the clip to be aesthetically unsuccessful and compare the effect to similarly controversial LEs like the Pelikan 1108 Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Others find the basic form appealing, see echoes of Montegrappa Ferrari editions and value especially the cap design. The high price is borne above all by the numerous diamonds as an enhancement element; overall the edition rather serves a luxury-affine target group for whom 'bling-bling' is more important than restrained design.
