Gorgeous and highly collectable Waterman DG (Directeur General) ballpoint pen. Gold Plated with Brown lacquer inlays. French hallmarks of gold plating imprinted on cap and barrel. Cap imprint: ”WATERMAN MADE IN FRANCE PLAQUE OR G" The 'DG' was first produced in France in the late 1970s and was Waterman’s top range of that period. Though over 35 years old, the pen is New Old Stock and in near mint condition with just marginal signs of storage wear. Uses the slim type “Waterman Titane” refill. The original refill was dried-out over time and has been replaced with a newer one (non-Waterman). Comes in its original Waterman box, complete with papers and dust cover. Will be shipped by registered mail.
