This is kind of my 'first' modern Waterman. I took a chance on a blurry-photo auction listing, and ended up with a very nice Waterman Laureat, the only thing is, it has the word "SAMPLE" stamped on the cap, alongside the clip, in small gold letters. I don't want to use this pen, as it was NOS and I'd like to keep it pristine.

So, I really want another Laureat - the same colour as my sample one! The size is very nice - not too large / heavy, and I like the red lacquer and transparent red sections very much. I have looked at dozens of discontinued Laureat's online, but there are many "Red" lacquers: I've seen a darkish burgundy, black and red swirls, black and red patterns... they have names like Red Marble, Red Shadow, Mineral Red, Coral, but they all seem to differ and I can't seem find *my* Red. It's a very fine marble-like pattern in rich, deep red with yellow / orange flecks through it.

If anyone could give me a possible name, at least I can start a more specific search, because "Red Laureat" in Google is taking me nowhere. Also, if you have a Laureat in this colour that you would like to part with, please let me know!
