Waterman Expert Black, Fountain Pen With Fine Nib And Blue Ink (S0951740)

Macia e fluida. Sem a aspereza das Parker e Sheaffer. Pelo preço, deveria vir com o conversor.

I love every aspect of this fountain pen; classy, very nice design, beautiful, great craftsmanship, and write very smoothly, its like a dance on the page.Good flow of the ink, doesn't leak at all like my previous cheaper pens.Very happy with the purchase...I also bought the converter and black ink, although I haven't tried it yet...tough I am using the cartridge that came with the pen. I use the pen every day and its my favourite...I recommend this Waterman fountain pen.

I took a risk in getting this pen via an Amazon Warehouse deal for the low price of $67.75. If I had bought the pen new here on Amazon, it would have cost about $85. And wow, the risk paid off well! The box had some very minor damage, but the pen is in wonderful shape and is perfect. It is a shiny black pen with chrome accents, which I greatly prefer over gold. I find gold to be tacky almost always. 😊 Since this pen comes with an ink cartridge but not a converter, I also purchased a Waterman converter when I bought the pen. I don't care for cartridges and prefer to buy bottles of ink because there's way more color and brand selection in bottles. Advice to fountain pen newbies: always read the product description and some of the associated questions regarding the products here on Amazon. I see that many are upset that the pen comes with no converter. Read before you buy, people! I own several Lamy Safaris, a Waterman Laureat from the 1990s, a few Chinese pens (Jinhao, Baoer, and Kaigelu), a Waterman Kultur, a TWSBI Eco, and a Pilot Metropolitan. My small fountain pen collection is growing, and I'd say that this Waterman Expert is hands down my best pen. It has a very smooth medium nib, and writes very well. It's not terribly heavy at 1.17 ounces (measured on my scale), but it has a nice heft to it, which I like. I can write with it posted or unposted with no problems. The pen has a very satisfying and clear snap of the cap when posted or closed. I can easily see this pen as my favorite daily writer. I love a good medium nib, and this Expert pleases me to no end. I love it! I have it inked now with Pelikan Royal Blue ink, and it writes wonderfully. I highly recommend this pen!

Sehr angenehm zu schreiben, tolles Schriftbild.

This review is a combination of that for a great pen as well as a bit of a warning when buying from a 3rd party.These Waterman expert pens are one of my most favourite fountain pens. The are elegant, professional looking, and the standard steel medium nib writes incredibly smoothly. A few people who I let try my other Waterman Expert pens say that they couldn't believe a fountain pen could feel this good and write this well. With a comment spoken a few times of " writing feels effortless".So I have reviewed this pen in other trims here on Amazon. The fine nib is also good, but has a slightly different feel.So I was excited to find this version on Warehouse Deals where it was an attractive deal. Unfortunately the person before me damaged the nib, and returned it and it was listed on Warehouse Deals as in "Good" condition.As you can see from the pics the nib was quite damaged. I gave a quick writing check since it came with the cartridge already loaded. It did write with a hint of scratchiness, but the line was what I would call broad or even double broad.So, just check your pens when you buy them from a third party. I have had good experiences as well as poor ones. It's good Amazon allows returns.
