Description from the seller
A0000003246
The pen is presented in very good preserved condition, maintaining an excellent overall appearance both aesthetically and functionally.
The body and the cap in black lacquer show a deep, uniform shine, with light micro-scratches only noticeable under close inspection and direct light, fully in line with careful use and the piece’s age. No cracks, chips, or deformations are observed.
The gold elements — clip, central ring engraved WATERMAN PARIS, and end-cap details — preserve a clean, well-defined gold finish, with minimal wear and no significant plating loss. The engravings remain sharp and perfectly legible.
The 18-karat solid gold nib is in very good condition, with correct alignment of the tines, the tip well preserved, and clear markings. The feed is intact and in good structural condition.
Overall, this is a very well-preserved, elegant specimen that fully represents the high quality level of the Waterman Le Man 100 series, ideal for both collection and regular use.
It will be shipped in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Good auction!
