Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this 1997 Waterman Carene Fountain Pen in the Sea Garden finish with Gold Plated Trim and 18K Medium Nib. This fountain pen has been gently used, serviced, cleaned, polished, and back in great writing condition. I consider this pen in Mint Condition with a Waterman box. 

NOTE: The Carene was first manufactured and sold to the public in 1997. Based on the owner's previous purchase records, this Carene was purchased in December 1997 at the Colorado Pen Company in Denver, CO. This is a 1st Year Waterman Carene.

The barrel and cap are enameled/lacquered over brass and display a gorgeous Sea Garden green shimmer color with no wear, nicks, cracks, dings, dents, or scratching. The cap and barrel of this fountain pen display 23K gold-plated trim and cap banding that is stamped, "WATERMAN FRANCE". The cap and barrel are excellent with the cap always securing tightly when capped and posted. There are no monograms or personalizations to either the cap or barrel. This fountain pen measures 5 3/4" inches in length capped and 5 7/8" inches posted.

This Waterman Carene can use an Ink Converter or Cartridges. Currently, this fountain pen only has a branded Waterman ink converter and functions as it should in my tests with water.

The NIB on this Waterman is 18K/750 Solid Gold with a Medium point. The tipping measures .65mm when measured using a digital caliper. I have only dip-tested this Waterman Carene to perform a writing sample, which will write with a very smooth line of roughly .68mm to .74mm when measured with digital calipers. The nib is very smooth - a great fountain pen to write with.

The Waterman Carene comes with a Waterman Factory Box and Waterman literature, which are in perfect condition.

This Waterman Carene Fountain Pen has a great feel in the hand and is very well-balanced. This Carene is a very sleek pen that writes excellently with a smooth, medium nib. It is ready to add to your writing arsenal collection. It is in Mint Condition in the original box and is a first-year model, 1997.
