The anbition of founder and racing enthusiast­s W.O. Bentley - “To build a fastest car, a good car, the best in its class” - is an intrinsic part of Bentley’s DNA, and is what continues to power the world’s leading luxury car maker to this day.

Two special editions are being launched for the anniversar­y year, each one limited to only 100 pieces: The “Mulsanne W.O. Edition by Mulliner”, reminiscen­t of the last car designed by WO Bentley, and the “Continenta­l GT Number 9 Edition by Mulliner”, inspired by Bentley’s history in classic motor racing and the famous winning No. 9 Blower. Every Bentley built in 2019 will feature a special “Centenary Specificat­ion” pack, including unique Centenary Gold badging, distinctiv­e seat embroidery, unique tread-plates and other special details which identify each part as part of the celebratio­ns. With a company history of also making exclusive writing instrument­s and accessorie­s for more than 250 years, Graf von Faber-Castell pays homage to Bentley’s “100 Extraordin­ary Years” with a timelessly beautiful yet uniquely dynamic trio of products. The fountain, rollerball and ballpoint pens of the “Limited Edition Centerary” range come in a sophistica­ted black color, reminiscen­t of sports cars of the past. All metal parts, the barrel and the nib of the fountain pen, have an anthracite-colored PVD coating made of titanium. In September of this year, the “Graf von Faber-Castell for Bentley” collection will be expanded to i nclude another extraordin­ary series of writing instrument­s.
