Gotta love Waterman's flex. Sure, full flex is harder to control than semi-flex, but the results! I can't get enough of them. Thanks for sharing, and your writing is lovely as always.

I've just got into fountain pens about 4 months ago and only really own cheap sup $20 pens atm. Though I did just buy my first vintage pen which is a Waterman Crusader with an open italic nib and it needs a new sack tho so I get to try my hand at my first sack replacement also. I think my Grail pen would be a Waterman 52 or 54 like yours there, or a vintage Conklin crescent filler or Mabie todd swan lol. I see also these vintage wet noodle pens that are beautiful and a testament to the craftsmanship of the time but any in decent shape are well above my budget. I don't think my handwriting abilities deserve a pen like that yet though. Your penmanship is great
@andrewtongue70845 жыл бұрын
In point of fact, both are delightful pens & nibs; not quite sure why the (other) commentators have to highlight his wristwatch - it's insignificant. The penmanship is the focus, which is accomplished, without doubt. Pleasing presentation, thank you :)

I couldn’t help but notice the quality of the Waterman. Beautifully slender and the depression for the lever is trimmed with the matching metal. I was obviously born too late.
@meljenkins10163 жыл бұрын
I still say that Waterman 52V is still the best flex nib ever made. I wish they would recreate that pen since they sell them at an outrageous price for the vintage one's.

Can you tell me why there's always a little hole on the vintage fountain pens ??
@giuseppecapilli49147 жыл бұрын
Because the pen can breath a little bit, usually the vintage pens are wet and the little hole make the cap dry and does not accumulate humidity inside.

+Nikxo A Well vintage waterman pens you can find on ebay and the Collier is widely available through most well known fountain pen retailers like Goulet Pens. The Binder nibs are no longer available since he retired so the cost is a moot point.
