I have searched around some and have found no information here about the Waterman Safety Pen. I have posted pictures of mine and would like to know if it is worth having restored, or if I should just leave it alone. Thanks, Tom

Waterman safety pens are, at least IMHO well worth the restoration. In fact, I'm searching for one right now. When fixed they are airplane proof always wet writers with an amazing ink capacity. Yours looks like it might need some nib work on top of the cork seal. It seems that someone in that poor pen's life forgot to retract the nib before recapping sad.gif

Good luck with it


Oh, and let me know if you want to get rid of it wink.gif
