cool pen myu :) looks like the carene has been designed from this pen.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

Yes, Georges. I had a Carene that I wish I could make a direct comparison with (misplaced it, unfortunately), but from what I remember of the design it does look like the Concord was its predecessor. :)

I recently bought a Waterman Torsade from barriep in the marketplace, and he mentioned to me that he thought that there was a period of superb Waterman design from 1960 to 1970 that was currently very under appreciated. Looking at this, I can see exactly what he meant. A real beauty - why are these not more sought after? Straight onto my want list.

Just purchased the gold version off fleabay. Nib section has a crack so it needs fixing /replaced as the ink spills out once primed for action. :crybaby:

Sincerest Regards

The cracked nib section is a major issue on this model....will happen no matter what one does when one uses it....eric can repair this with a solvent weld, I am also taking this to the waterman dealership in my country on monday to assess the charges that may be incurred! Ill see who I send the pen to, waterman itself seems good but I don't trust the local dealer!

Who is "Eric" - as I need his services if he's reasonably available (I'm in the UK and my Concord leaks!!).

i just got my concord (all the way from croatia!) and am very pleased with it--writes a smooth medium-fine, and this one had no problems, looks almost new. interesting aerometric-type converter.

So I just bought a Concord and am still confused about what kind of pen cartridge to try out. It seems like the Waterman cartridges should? Or not?

 

Thanks!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
