I bought this pen about 10 years ago from Spain and I have been trying to find out what model it is. Its color is beatiful deep sea blue with marble like cravings mixed with navy blue (not black) tip.
Here is another picture
If anyone knows something about this model, I'd appreciate it. Jari

Hi,
This looks like a Laureat. I have one in Balck and Gold. Waterman also made a LeMans but the LeMans was smaller. These are nice pens. The only complaints that I have is that the plastic used for the section is brittle and prone to breaking (I have 2 broken sections) and on my pen the cap seems quite loose. I also have a Laureat roller ball and the plastic in that is also brittle.

While we're identifying pens...
I received this pen as a gift about 5 or 6 years ago, as part of a matching FP-BP set. However, it never really wrote that well, until I joined FPN. Reading through tips on how to handle recalcitrant pens, I soaked the nib/feed in soapy water and then flossed it, with spectacular results-- it now writes fairly well. I'm entering it into my regular rotation.
My only question is: does anyone know what model this is?

Same nib as my Apostrophe. Maybe a predecesor...

Yes, on my internet quest the Apostrophe was the closest model I could find. It differs from it in the faceted shape of the grip section and the placement of the clip.
