Compatible Ballpoint Refill. Help Needed.

[DaRulz]

Hello,

 

I got this Waterman pen as a gift years ago and never used it. Days ago I purchased the refill in link below, but it did not fit. Can you please suggest a refill that will fit in the pen.

 

Refill (Did not fit): http://www.amazon.com/Waterman-Refill-Ballpoint-Medium-Point/dp/B00007JQQZ/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1416348414&sr=8-6&keywords=waterman+ballpoint

 

Photos attached as well.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi, I cannot name the model but fairly sure it has to use the Flair Titane which you will have great difficulty buying. They do appear on ebay but I would be very careful with those because they could have dried out.

Thanks. Do you know if these might fit: http://www.paradisepen.com/fine-pens/refills/cartier-must-ball-point-refill-black-medium-point-vxrb0211.html

The Flair Titan is approx 90mm to 92mm long x 3mm diameter, if the Cartier is close it could be worth a try.

 

The features put it at 3 3/4" which at 95mm it could well be suitable.

I had the same problem.

 

Perhaps the Cartier refills will fit, but they are a little bit expensive and not so popular as Parker or Cross.

I harvested a refill from my Cross BP not in use, removed the plastic knob, cut to the proper length and modified the refill end.

 

Here's my result.

You can see "A.T.CROSS" on the refill.

 

 

 

Unfortunately, this kind of refills do not work with some of my pens.

Cross refills are a little thicker than the original Waterman refills around the tip.

 

You had better check if your Cross refill will fit your pen before you make this modification.

Is that not an older Laureat ballpoint?

 

The part number on this refill is different to the one you listed before:

Might be worth a look?

I have searched my catalogues and may stand corrected but there was no BP in the Laureat range.

 

The refill you link is a Maxima which is for later Waterman models.

Here's my Laureat FP with matching ballpoint, if I can get the photo to upload.

 

The refill looks very similar so thought it might be an older model.

 

Think I've got it uploaded this time 😊

I stand corrected.

I suppose it's odd that the ballpoint isn't listed in the catalogues.

Sorry it is listed in some. Others just show the RB and some just the FP
