Product Description
Type Vintage ballpoint multi-pen.
Product Name This is from the Jif-Matic line.
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, made in France – probably from the 1960s or so.
Length Just over 5-5/16 inches.
Filling System There's a tab to extend each color (black, blue, green, and red) which you slide down the barrel. We compared the Waterman metal mini-pen refill to a standard modern mini refill, and it was a little shorter, though the diameter seemed to be the same. You might be able to shorten a modern refill, though we can't guarantee it, and thus we can't promise you'll be able to get the pen writing. The mechanism is working very well. Please note that all of the currently installed refills are out of ink, not so much used up as likely the ink has just stopped flowing.
Color Chrome plated body with a pattern of lines, a chrome plated jewel and trim.
Condition Excellent + condition. No cracks or chips, dings or dents, personalization, or plating wear. There are some small microscratches along the barrel, but no real wear. The mechanism seems to be working very well, though the installed refills are out of ink.
