AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A0000001864
The mechanical pencil is presented in very good condition, maintaining a well-maintained aesthetic that is fully in line with a high-end Waterman piece.
The black resin body maintains a deep and uniform shine, with slight and normal signs of use visible only upon close inspection, typical of a piece that has been properly used and well maintained. No cracks, fissures, or deformations are observed.
The golden embellishments (clip, rings, and tip) are well preserved, with a bright and uniform gold finish. Micro-surface signs typical of use can be observed, with no significant loss of coating or corrosion, maintaining an excellent visual appearance.
The central engraved ring, marked 'WATERMAN – FRANCE,' appears clear and perfectly legible, with no noticeable wear on the inscription.
The mechanical pencil mechanism functions correctly, with smooth activation of the button and proper grip of the lead.
It is delivered with its original Waterman case, which shows normal signs of use and passage of time but remains structurally correct and perfectly fulfills its protective and presentation functions.
Overall, this is an original Waterman Charleston mechanical pencil in very good condition, accompanied by its original case, ideal for both elegant daily use and collection, preserving the character and quality inherent to the brand.
Good auction!
