Filling System Eye dropper filler. We've cleaned and tested it and it's working very well.

Nib EXTRA FINE fully flexible gold Waterman's Ideal New York #4 nib is symmetrical and smooth. It has nice flexibility from an extra fine to a nice large broad under very little pressure. See writing sample below.
Condition Excellent condition. The main flaw is the color, and we've priced the pen accordingly. The hard rubber has oxidized and much of it appears more brown than black now. There are a few tiny light scratches, and some hand wear ont he cap and barrel. No cracks or chips, dings or dents, or personalization. The imprints are slightly worn but still readable. It's working very well.
