Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored Circa 1908 Waterman 18K Gold Filled Filigree Overlay Eyedropper Fountain Pen. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, put back together, and is now in wonderful writing condition.

I have ultrasonically cleaned the NIB and feed. Hand-cleaned the inside of the barrel, cap, and section with mineral oil. Hand polished the 18 Carat Gold Filled Filigree Overlay and Waterman Ideal New York 14K #4 NIB. The 18 Carat Gold Filled Filigree Overlay is a wonderful condition with no damage. There is some very light scratching that I would consider below-normal wear for the age of the pen. This fountain pen is made from black hard rubber with an 18K Gold Filled Filigree overlay. The edge of the cap overlay is stamped clearly with, "WATERMAN". The black hard rubber under the overlay displays very little oxidation and displays a lovely black color. The cap is a slip-type cap and secures to the barrel easily. The fountain pen cap does not display a pocket clip and there is no indication that it ever came with one. There are no monograms or personalizations to either the cap or barrel. This Waterman measures 5 3/8" in length capped and 6 7/8" posted.

This Waterman 0514 has a 14K Ideal New York #4 Flexible Nib. The tip/point of the Nib/iridium has a medium point measuring .65mm when measured with digital calipers. The Nib flexes from a medium (.64mm) line to a triple broad (1.86mm) stroke/line when measured with digital calipers under medium pressure. The writing sample in the images was produced from the actual pen that is listed for sale by dipping the Nib in Montblanc Blue Ink.

This #14 Waterman is an uncommon writing instrument in the Gold-Filled Filigree Design. I would grade this Waterman in excellent condition. This Waterman is ready to write with or just add it to your writing arsenal collection.
