Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Black lacquer with gold trim. Fine nib is almost indistinguishable from the platinum medium nib. While i haven't taken the step to using an ink bladder and bottled ink for the waterman, it is something that may be worth exploring.

It's alot heavier than the hemisphere. A beefy pen, great for my big hands. Good weight and balance.

Cap clicks securely and easily for both storage and when in use.

Quality


I love the feel and smoothness of writing with this pen it’s well made and waterman ink is outstanding


Good flow smooth writing and well balanced


No manufacturer documentation instructions warranty website infonothing


I recently dropped it and the bottom cracked which broke the seal on the bottom part of the pen

Price


This waterman ink pen with a medium tip helps me integrate all my efforts into a 34home run34 at a very reasonable price


It is priced competitively and a great entry model to start a life time of fountain pen ownership


Bought this on sale when it was listed for 59


For a 100 pen amazon needs to do better than this

Packaging/appearance


The packaging was very nice and neatcame in a very luxurious box


It came beautifully packaged writes like a dream and the recipient is quite pleased


Came in a nice presentation box with extra cartridge and thats it


If youre giving it as a gift it uses tape to seal the box which left a sticky residue

Competitiveness


It does not feel cheap by any means regardless of being tenth of a price in comparison to a montblanc


The included ink cartridge contains a very nice color blue as well comparable to watermans bottled inks


I had fooled around with buying other other fountain pens on amazon that were cheaper and that’s just what i got cheaper and inferior


The price was much better than fahrneys pens
