Product Description
Type Cartridge/converter filling fountain pen.
Product Name Phileas.
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, France – from the late 1990s or earlier 2000s.
Length 5-5/16 inches capped.
Filling System Waterman branded cartridges and converters fit best but international-style cartridges and converters do work. The pen will ship with an unused Waterman cartridge.
Color Blue Marble. It's a rich blue with black and greyish marbling and gold colored trim.
Nib MEDIUM two tone Waterman Paris steel nib marked M. It's smooth with just a touch of springiness. The nib has no pitting, which is rather unusual for this era of Waterman steel nibs.
Condition Excellent condition. The pen has handwear and microscratching that dulls the general appearance of the pen. The band at the end of the barrel has a gap opposite the more ornate part of the band but that is original and not a crack (we see this frequently, it's visible in the horizontal shot below). No cracks, chips, or major scratches. A few marks on the trim are present. The pen is working well.
