Is this a Waterman Expert ?

[Bill Steamshovel]

Hello,

 

Bill the newbie here.

 

CLosest I could see in the collection of Waterman Pen Photos was Waterman Expert.

 

Is that correct ?

This is what I was comparing it to, but its a biro not a fountain pen.

Yes, it is.  This Expert is a Mk1, the first and original version.

Lucky! I really would like an early model in blue. You might want to take a look at this recent thread:

Penguincollector and zeroduke. Thank you for the replies. Looks like my first fountain-pen was a lucky acquisition.

Beats mine -- a Parker Reflex, where the rubber disintegrated off the grip after awhile.  As it did on the replacement Reflex....

My first fountain pen was also a Waterman, the Laureat (either a model 2 or 3) in blue.
