How many Watermans do you own?

[Misfit]

I have one Waterman, my first fountain pen, the Laureat in blue marble.

Nice. I have always admired the Laureat. Never had one.

[adyf]

Just two now, Edson Diamond Black and Edson Sterling Silver LE. Sold my Carenes and an Exception Night & Day.

I have the same two Edsons. Great pens, but I would have liked a stub on one of them. Too expensive to get a spare section, though.

Three here:

 

Phileas, Charleston, and Charleston rollerball.

[gweimer1]

I find myself with three, and eventually, I'll get some of the classics.

 

I have a Commando, a Corinth (that needs work) and a C/F.

[iveyman]

I have 6 Waterman fountain pens. Five of them are vintage. Only one is modern.

 

2 with pink nibs.

1 is a One Hundred Years pen

1 is a Patrician Moss Agate

Four of them have nice flex nibs.

A Preface with a medium nib has been 'my pen' for the last 20 years. Since then I have bought another cap and barrel and some spare nib units: a B, another M (now modified by Pendleton Brown), a factory stub and an OGL (oblique gauche large?). Other than those I have a couple of 52-1/2v, a 32v, a 52, a 55 and a Stalwart 352.

[Tasmith]

Update.

 

1 Executive

3 Kulturs (blue, red and green tranlucent), my best daily work horse pens.

 

Thinking about a 4th Kultur, clear demonstrator.

[Nicholas Green]

I have the following Waterman pens:

 

Two Edson sapphire blue fountain pens

• Two Edson sapphire blue fountain pens
• One Edson LE
• One Serenite
• One Expert II fountain pen
• One Expert II pencil

[gweimer1]

I've added a couple

 

Commando

Corinth

52 1/2 v

Lady Patricia - which is just a WOW pen. I will be keeping this one. It's really just outstanding.

[Misfit]

I now have two Watermans. I got a Phileas after finding the Phileas Phever thread. Force helped me steer clear of iffy ones on eBay. I got the green Amazon version in a set. The pen looks pristine. The listing said it was never used. Very lucky find.

[kulnet]

Sadly, none. Yet. I'm thinking very seriously about dipping my toe in to see what they are all about.

[Dronak]

Presently, just one: a Phileas. It's worked well enough for me, so I'd consider getting others, but at the moment, I'd kind of prefer to get pens from other makers to broaden my experience with fountain pens.

[FredRydr]

I've sold off about 50 vintage Watermans, from hard rubber 52s through to wartime 100-year pens, leaving me with a core collection of a half dozen red ripples, 52 to 56, all users with nibs-to-die-for, a few early slip-cap hard rubber pens, a couple sterling and solid-gold hand-engraved overlays, a complete set of color nibbed No. 7s, and Silver-Ray, Emerald-Ray, Copper-Ray and "Black-Ray"* Watermans that are part of my international Ray-Celluloid pen collection. I have a moss agate Patrician set that I've decided will go. I just don't use it because it is too perfect.

A Lady Patricia Onyx (and pencil)

A Lady Patricia Persian. Even with the flexy nib that needs to be tuned, this is my favorite pen.
