Product Name Model 7, based off of the 7 imprint on the red disc at the end of the barrel. Models 5 and 7 started as red ripple hard rubber pens, then evolved into celluloid pens.
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, Canada -- 1930s, the first celluloid version came out in 1929 and the second celluloid version ceased production in 1939.
Length 5-7/16"
Filling System Lever filler. We have replaced the sac and it's working very well. We guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.
Color Black celluloid cap and barrel with gold plated trim.
Nib FIRM FINE gold Waterman's Ideal "Accountant" nib. It's marked "Account Waterman's IDEAL Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. Made in USA". It's in nice condition with good tipping, and feels smooth on paper.
Condition Excellent condition. The cap band is brassed along both edges. The clip has brassed around the edges, and wiggles just a bit from side-to-side (please do not pull forcefully on the clip, it shouldn't be relied on to open for much more than a few sheets of paper). The surface of the cap has moderate wear and scratching. The steps at the top of the cap look really good, no scratches or chips. The section is faded to a deep olive color, and there are some tool marks near where it joins the barrel. The barrel has handwear and moderate scratching. The barrel imprints are clear. The celluloid is in good shape and fairly evenly colored; although the section is slightly faded, the rest of the barrel and the cap are quite uniform. The pen is restored and working well.
