Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored Circa 1913 A.A. Waterman Twistfiller Fountain Pen in black chased hard rubber. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, put back together, and now is in wonderful writing condition.

Ultrasonically cleaned the NIB, section, and feed. Hand-cleaned the inside of the barrel and cap with mineral oil. Cleaned and polished the cap and barrel. The black chased hard rubber displays a deep black color with crisp chasing - easily in an excellent condition color and chasing bordering on near mint.

The middle barrel has perfect crisp imprints that read, "ARTHUR A. WATERMAN & CO. N.Y. SELF-FILLING PAT. NOV.17'03 & OCT.11'04 NOT CONNECTED WITH L.E. WATERMAN CO.". The cap is a slip-on type cap always securing tightly to the barrel. There are no monograms or personalizations on the barrel or cap. There are no cracks, nicks, or repairs to the fountain pen. This A.A. Waterman measures 5 7/8" in length capped and 6 1/2" posted.

The NIB is a wonderfully flexible, wet, and smooth A. A. Waterman 14K Flexible NIB. The actual tip of the Waterman 14K NIB measures .58mm with digital calipers or a fine point. When writing the sample in the listing images, the NIB writes with a fine line measuring .48mm with very light pressure and flexes up to a triple broad stroke of 1.93mm with medium to firm pressure. The writing sample provided was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Montblanc Blue Ink.

This A.A. Waterman is a Twist Fill Filler mechanism that has been restored to work again with a new sac. The end of the barrel will turn clockwise and counterclockwise to compress the sac and open it to take in ink or expel it. 

This is a spectacular example of an Arthur A. Waterman Twist-filler Fountain Pen. I would grade this fountain pen in Excellent+ to Near Mint condition. These fountain pens are difficult to acquire in this type of condition and is an amazing wet, smooth, flexible writer.
