Pen 4130: Sheaffer Targa Model 1080 $495 Classic (full size) Cadmium Yellow Swirl

Overall Grade: Nearmint	Metal: As mint	Color: Perfect	.CLICK FOR LARGER PIC
Nib condition: Nearmint	Clutch: Perfect	clarity: NA
Point: Meassive BB	Imprint: NA	Size: 5 3/4" 14.4 cm	PRICE: $495
COMMENTS: Waterman's Man 100 series ran I believe 1980s-1990s. Many variants. The series soemwhat channeled Waterman's cylindrical "flat top" pens made prior to 1940. The Patrician variants had pierced-work cap-bands that reflected the 1930s original Patrician series. Color is Emerald for this one. Massive point. Marked "L" on feed, I assume for "large" or broad. To my eye the tipping is at least double broad. Nice smooth line. A bold signature nib. Nearmint pen (it has met ink). Converter included.

Pen 4099 K: Waterman Lady Patricia $415 Early 1930s. Moss Agate Celluoloid Monster NIb

Overall: Excellent	Metal: Exc	Color: Exc	.CLICK FOR LARGER PIC
Nib condition: Exc	Threads: Perfect	clarity: Exc
Point: Stub Flex Monster	Imprint: Exc	Size: 4 1/4", 10.7 cm	PRICE: $415
COMMENTS: Waterman offered a range of fountain pens during the early 1930s, offering a different series at nearly each price point, in contrast to Sheaffer and Parker, who tended to offer a wide range of differently priced models within given series. Lady Patricia was the high quality short-slender version of the oversized Patrician. This one pops. Clean condition and lovely Moss Agate Celluloid. Icing on cake is a broad, flex stub nib that writes a needle thin cross stroke and can give monster width on the downstroke with minimal pressure.

Point: Faaaaat Stub	Imprint: NA	Size: 6" 15.2 cm	PRICE: $715
COMMENTS: One of the most attractive of recent fountain pens, this hefty Waterman sports a stub nib that effectively is at least double broad on down strokes, with thin cross lines thanks to the stub effect. Remarkable nib.

Pen 4082 K: Waterman Emblem Pen $265 Late 1940s. Clutch Cap. Excellent. Full Flex nib

Overall Grade: Exc	Metal: Exc	Color: Perfect	.CLICK FOR LARGER PIC
Nib condition: Exc+	Clutch: Perfect	clarity: NA
Point: Fine FLEX	Imprint: Exc	Size: 5 5/4" 13.4 cm	PRICE: $265
COMMENTS: Manufactured near the end of the Emblem/Hundred-Year run (1946 or so), Waterman offered clutch-close versions of those venerable names, perhaps a late attempt to catch up with the Parker "51". This one has a big Waterman Emblem nib that writes a flex nib, based on a thin fine line when not flexed. Smooth writer. Lovely condition. A relatively uncommon standard size version of Emblem, with very stable plastic when done in basic black.

Pen 4012 Waterman Edson Ballpoint. Burgundy $450

Overall Grade: Excellent+	Metal: Excellent+	Color: NA	.CLICK FOR LARGER PIC
Nib condition: NA	Threads: Perfect	clarity: NA
Point: NA	Imprint: NA	Size: 5 5/8" 14.2cm	PRICE: $450
COMMENTS: Probably Waterman's most impressive fountain pen from the last 30 years, the Edson fountain pen has 18-carat solid gold nib and a translucent lacquer body. This offering includes the early Sapphire, Emerald, and Ruby pens with gold plated caps. Among the three, blue is most often found, with green and red progressively uncommon. This one is a ballpoint in burgundy, lightly used, very clean.

Near Modern Waterman: A bit of this and that.

A variety of high quality near-modern Watermans. All pictured are fountain pens. All include Waterman converters for these cartridge/converter pens. Most are lightly used. I flushed each extensively and ultrasounded the nib-section assemblies before testing to guarantee good ink-flow and writing. A really nice bunch.

Pen 3445: Waterman Ink-Vue (mid 1930s) $775 Celluloid True Dealer Demonstrator. HIgh Flex "Red" Nib.

Overall Grade: Fair-Good cap. Exc Barrel.	Metal: Good	Color: Excellent
Nib condition: Exc	Threads: Perfect	clarity: Excellent
Point: high flex med	Imprint: Excellent	Size: 5 1/18" 13 cm	PRICE: $775
COMMENTS: Waterman's Ink-Vue (whose mechanism eventually spread to other Waterman lines) was released in Copper Ray, Emerald Ray, and Silver Ray colors, the series aimed it seems at Parker's Vacumatic. Deluxe variants with triple cap-band also were made. Released perhaps one per thousand typical pens were true dealer Demonstrators, done wholly in clear celluloid (all found now have at least a yellow tint, and I cannot say if they had the yellow cast at time of issue). These were not clear pens released to public as today are so many pens opportunistically labelled "demonstrator". This was the real deal, meant for dealers alone to illustrate the filling mechanism before selling typical pens to customers. I've seen fewer than ten during the last thirteen years looking, and some of those had replacement black cap. This one is intact though has some points of roughness. The barrel all around is in great shape. The nib is a killer full flex Wateman "RED" keyhole style nib, more flexible than some Pink nibs I've seen. I likely should yank the nib and place a common point, but I'd prefer not to tamper with this fragile pen. Sac has been removed to preserve barrel color. The barrel is personalized, as per the picture. The cap trim is rough (would polish to look better, but I wanted you to see it at its worst). Of note, there are significant internal stress cracks to the inner cap (the inner layer of celluloid at top half of cap) that do not externalize and which have been stable for the decade I've owned the pen. Further photos will be offered of that shortly. The pen is intact, it is rare and dwarfs ths scarcity of some currently popular Demonstrators such as are found in the Parker "51" and Sheaffer Snorkel series. Why to sell? Well, after ten years I found a second, still with nib grade sticker. Otherwise this would stay with me.
