New: blue marbled Phileas. Clear Kultur demo.

Vintage: 52, C/F. I gave away an antique-store 52 1/2 to a friend; I also have a little Aikin-Lambert BCHR ringtop.

I have a Waterman Etalon in burgundy and with medium gold nib and trim, a work of art and a beautiful writer, purchased at the Sheraton Hotel in Lagos Nigeria in 1999. Many fond memories when I use this pen.

Just two, an Expert II and a Phileas. The Expert I got off Ebay for $5.00. :roflmho: The seller did not know what it was! Came with box.

I have just one Waterman ... a Black and Silver Hemisphere.

But I'm looking at getting a green/silver Expert Dune.

I just need to find someone that has one in stock so I can see how the size compares to what I have.

Five 55's, ten 54's, twelve 52's, ten 52 1/2's, seven Juniors, some Canadian, some US, some UK, some ringtop, some clipcap, some swirl, some not... two commandos, couple of 12's, some gold overlay 52's, some silver filigree 52's and 54's, some boxed, assorted demonstrators, jifs, patricians (wait, that's a ballpoint), several Exceptions (night and day, platinum, slim, etc) two experts and a Charleston I don't really want. Also, a big handful of what I take to be 1930-1950 era Waterman's with pretty finishes, but I don't know the model numbers of anything post-1925... :rolleyes:

My brother gave me a Cardinal Red Patrician for my graduation in 1993. I bought the matching ballpoint a couple of months later.

 

Still love them.

Last Friday, I purchased my first Waterman - Carene with a fine nib. It is supposed to be charcoal but sometimes it looks blue. Nevertheless, it is so beautiful and I have it filled with Fahrney's Black Cherry ink - not too red, not too brown.

      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
