This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, put back together, and is now in wonderful writing condition. This Waterman #94 is at the top of the food chain being in Mint condition - you might find one the same but there won't be one better! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have ultrasonically cleaned the NIB, feed, and section. Hand cleaned the inside of the barrel and cap. I cleaned, buffed, and polished the outside of the cap and barrel to bring back the vibrancy of the material and to protect the celluloid. The threads on the cap and barrel are excellent, with the cap always securing tightly to the barrel. There are no personalizations or monograms on either the cap or the barrel. There are no cracks, nicks, or repairs to the celluloid. I replaced the old Waterman-branded rubber sac with a new silicone sac. I hand-polished the gold-filled clip, cap banding, and lever box assembly along with the Waterman 14K Yellow Keyhole nib. This Waterman #94 measures 5 1\/8\" in length capped, 6 1\/2\" posted, and it weighs .61 ounces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lever and box assembly have been cleaned and oiled. It works flawlessly and smoothly in my tests with water. The lever is crisp and clean with no wear to the gold-filled material. The clip has been polished and displays no wear. The cap banding is also in excellent condition, displaying no wear\/brassing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fountain pen is made from celluloid in the Moss Agate color, comprising of bronze and green celluloid with black veins. The barrel is clearly stamped at the center of the barrel that reads, \"WATERMAN'S REG. U.S. IDEAL GLOBE LOGO PAT. OFF MADE IN USA FOUNTAIN PEN\". The butt end of the fountain pen has the model number #94 perfectly stamped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Waterman #94 has a 14K Yellow Keyhole nib that writes with a semi-flexible line variation. When measuring the actual iridium tip of the nib, it measures at .82mm with digital calipers. When drafting the writing sample in the listing images, the NIB writes with a fine line measuring roughly .47mm with very light pressure and flexes up to a double broad line measuring 1.40mm with medium to heavy pressure when measured with digital calipers. 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 Von Graf Faber-Castell Cobalt Blue Ink. The Yellow Keyhole nib was known to features a ball-shaped, upturned tip that writes smoothly in any direction, making it exceptionally popular for both left-handed and right-handed writers. The Yellow Keyhole Nib would be an upgraded nib point, but proper for a #94 model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaterman #94s are are both scarce and highly sought after, and this example stands out for its superb color, immaculate gold-filled trim, sharp imprint, and wonderful writing nib. It is truly a collector-grade instrument, worthy of anchoring any vintage Waterman collection. I consider this one to be in Mint Condition!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Digger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49165572178228,"sku":null,"price":752.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1862\/4123\/files\/1929Waterman94MossAgateFountainPen1.jpg?v=1781734722","url":"https:\/\/antiquedigger.com\/en-ca\/products\/1929-waterman-94-moss-agate-14k-yellow-keyhole-nib-fountain-pen-restored-mint","provider":"Antique Digger","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
