Waterman Repousse Fountain Pen Id

[TommyJ]

Hi everyone!

I recently acquired this Waterman fountain pen. I don't have it in my hands yet as it is still in the mail. Here is the sellers listing. Would someone be able to help me with the identification of the model number and pattern.

Thanks

TJ

Thanks Fred. The clip was kind of throwing me off too. I thought all of these early ED repousse/chased pens were clipless?

1905 is the patent date on my clip of my 52. ED pens were still made for the 'old fashioned'.

Beautiful pen, the first time I've seen a box like that.

As Bo Bo mentions, even after newer models were introduced, the earlier styles were still available for customers that preferred them.

 

The later (i.e. middle of the first decade of the 1900s) catalogs which include clipped pens still show the older style pen shapes and some of the older overlays.

It would not surprise me at all to find a pen like this that a completely legit factory pen, just purchased a bit later than we normally consider think of for 050x pens.

 

Great pick up. Congratulations.

Oh wow, that is so beautiful. I hope it's still in good working condition? Would be cool to be able to still use that.

Thanks Siopaopei! I use every pen I own and am looking forward to inking this one up! The nib and feed look OK in the pics so I'm hoping it won't require much more than a cleaning and be ready to go. It still hasn't arrived yet but I will post some pics once I get it writing again!

Pen still has not arrived. The seller is using eBay's duties and customs services. This means eBay charges estimated duties on International purchases (and of course and extra fee), the seller mails it to a warehouse, probably a Pitney Bowes partner, they take forever to re-label it, and finally after a month or two you get your item. VERY FRUSTRATING! I just received a Montblanc 149, using this same scheme, after 2.5 months!!
