AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A0000005192
The fountain pen is in an exceptional aesthetic and structural state, evidencing extremely careful use and optimal storage over the years:
Body and Cap: The characteristic cylindrical body, with its matte brushed steel finish, remains impeccable. After a detailed inspection, there are no dents, dings, or deep scratches that alter the purity of its lines. The metal maintains a uniform texture along its entire length.
Original Engravings: At the base of the cap, the factory stampings ("WATERMAN" and "MADE IN FRANCE") remain absolutely sharp, clean, and deep, with no wear from continual rubbing.
Gold-Plated Clip and Elements: The iconic gold-plated clip that gives the model its name, finished in that elegant drop shape (Goutte), presents a spectacular mirror-like shine. No signs of wear on the plating, chipping, oxidation, or pronounced edge wear are observed.
Nib and Feed: The grooved, ribbed feed is in perfect condition, free of cracks or pressure marks. The nib (which in this high-end model is typically made of solid 18k gold) remains intact, clean, and with the tines perfectly aligned, without deformations.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for correct preservation.
Happy bidding!
