Product Description
| Type | Vintage pen with eyedropper filling system, which has a flexible nib. |
| Product Name | Model 12 (marked on the end of the pen barrel) |
| Manufacturer and Year | Waterman - late 1910s .... the calendar is for August 1918! |
| Length | 5-3/16" |
| Filling System | Eyedropper (We tested the pen and it works very well.) We will include an eye dropper so you can start using it right away (provided you have some fountain pen ink). |
| Color | Black chased hard rubber with no trim. This model has an aftermarket accomodation clip, as the slip cap was intended to lack a clip. |
| Nib | The nib is marked Waterman Ideal New York (it's set deeply, but we can see a #2). It is fully flexible with a good ink flow ... and a lot of tipping material. The line varies from Extra Fine to Broad. (Not a wet noodle, but it flexes easily.) |

Condition
|
Excellent condition, though the color on the cap is a little faded. No cracks in the cap. Excellent readable imprints on barrel and barrel end. This pen writes very smoothly with an excellent amount of flex. The ink supply system is working well, and we'll guarantee it for a year. |
