Product Description
Type Safety pen in excellent working condition
Product Name So called "Baby" version. 42 1/2 V, marked on the end of the barrel. 4 = safety filling system, 2 = nib size, 1/2 = slender, V = short. There was a smaller safety pen made by Waterman, but this is the more common one usually referred to as the "Baby."
Length 3-7/16" capped, 4-11/16" posted. This is an extremely small pen, so please don't purchase it without giving consideration to the size.
Filling System Safety filler (we replaced the seals and thoroughly tested the pen, and we will guarantee it to be free from leaks for a year from the date of purchase.)
Color Black chased hard rubber.
Nib FLEXIBLE FINE Waterman's Ideal New York #2 gold nib is very smooth. It has lots of tipping material and writes with excellent line variation. See the writing sample below. Note the narrow lines. There are some scuff marks on the right side of the nib.
Condition Superior condition. The pen is very dark with strongly delineated chasing. The imprints are clear and the safety knob turns well. The only wear is the aforementioned scuff marks on the nib. It ships in its original Waterman box. The box opens by pressing the button on the side to release the lid.
