[SOLD]Waterman 52v Olive Ripple $130


[SOLD]Waterman 52v Olive Ripple

Been blessed to have a few Olive Ripples come through my hands, but not luckily enough where they are in perfect condition. This one has lost its clip on the cap, and has a part of the cap where the clip attaches to broken off. You can see the inner cap, and it still creates a good seal. Another flaw is the crack in the barrel. Color on this one is amazing. It's a nice bright mustard yellow unlike the previous one that was more of a darker variety. Cap still threads on/off snug and smooth. Imprints are a bit faded, but still legible. The trim is in good condition showing just hints of wear. It is a shame the damage this pen has received throughout the years, but if it was in good condition it would easily go for double of my asking price. Feed is original and is brown in color matching the pen. The nib writes amazingly smooth from XF to BB. It is a semi-flex pen, but the smoothness of such a fine width is not something I come by everyday. Writing sample is done on .5cm grid 90 gsm Clairefontaine paper. Measurements: 11cm capped, 15cm posted, and 10.5cm unposted.

Asking price is $130 shipped within CONUS via Priority with tracking/insurance. USA buyers preferred. International buyers please PM or Email for shipping rates. I am not responsible for any duty fees incurred since I have no control over customs.
