Product Description
Type | Cartridge fill fountain pen and pencil set |
Product Name | CF for "cartridge filler" |
Manufacturer and Year | Waterman, USA, 1950s |
Length | 5-5/16" |
Filling System |
Here's the challenge with Waterman CFs: the cartridges and converters are no longer made and are close to impossible to find. To use these pens, most modern day owners resort to refilling the cartridges with a syringe. Towards that end, we will provide the buyer with one used Waterman CF cartridge. The cartridge can be refilled. The pencil takes .9mm leads. |
Color | Black barrel, gold plated cap and trim. |
Nib | 14k nib is fine and semi-flexible. Some of the gold plating surrounding the nib has started to flake, as you can see from the nib close-up, but it doesn't affect writing. |
Condition |
Nice condition, though the gold plating on the cap and clip is a little worn, though no brassing on the fountain pen. Light marks and hand wear. The pencil has a lot more wear and there's some pitting to the plating on the section near the nib. No dents or scratches. |
