Waterman Man 100, 200 And Gentleman Catalogue Prices In 80S

[aurore]

May I ask what were catalogue prices in 80s (or 90s) of Man 100, Man 200 and Gentleman FP respectively?

 

I am asking mainly regarding standard models, but would be very grateful for any special editions pricing (like Opera, Patrician, sterling silver etc.) either

 

Thank you

We might experience Tumbling Weed here.

 

I have many catalogues, non of which show actual prices for any pens so we will probably have to rely on original buyers viewing this.

 

I have one catalogue from mid 1980's, where a prospective Exclusive buyer had penned on their prices. The only problem being I am unsure of the currency.

 

It goes for lacquered finish models only

 

FP 85

BP 50

Pencil 50

RB 55

 

I suppose we could assume a close (ish) price for the Gentleman, because it was the next model up, say plus 20 or 30 (whatever) on each model.

Thank you. And how much would you say was Man 100? Double price of Gentleman?

I would have said 1.5 x perhaps for the std black models.

I thought they were more expensive. Very good pens for the price.

Converting $85 in 1985 to 2018...an online converter says with inflation, today it would be $199.00
