Help Identification Pen


Waltz For Zizi

Recommended Posts

Can anyone help me identifying this Waterman pen. I couldn't find the model of this pen. I found some identical pens with different pattern though in said to be in 18k gold overlay. Could this be also in 18k gold? P.s. it's not mine, I just found it for sale somewere.

Either a 0552 1/2v or a 552 1/2v in the French chain-link pattern known as Gothic. This is different from the American Waterman Gothic pattern.

18k ? Ask the somewhere seller to provide pictures of its hallmarks and if it has numbers on the barrel end.

Thanks for the reply. It looks like the pen has no number markins on the bottom of the barrel. Is this a normal thing?

And also it it were to be a 0552 1/2v would 200€ be a reasonable price for a pen in working condition?

Id say that's kinda high for a restored 0552 1/2v, but check your local classifieds and draw your own conclusions. It's a nice pen none the less!

      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
