Waterman 52 Red rippple body with skyline cap

Lever filler - new sac, restored, sucks up ink.

Nib - Waterman #2 Nib, Canada, 14k gold nib.
Extra fine point, fantastic flex and great responsiveness/springback quality typical of vintage Waterman nibs. Smooth writer with a hint of feedback (feels like writing with pencil)
Nib point has a slightly downward curve to it, it doesn't look bent. Perhaps it is a Waterman accountant nib? Not sure.
See pictures and Writing samples for more detail.

Body - red ripple has slightly oxidized, free of chips or cracks. Good condition for its age.

Skyline Cap and Body - Good condition for its age, blue color. Barrel is engraved "John Hunt".

I Didn't have a Waterman 52 cap but I did have some Skyline parts. I found that the skyline cap easily screws onto the Waterman body. So i guess it can be used as a temporary cap until you find a replacement Waterman Cap. Skyline body and cap (Standard sized not demi-sized I believe) are included in sale, so you can use them for parts, it'll need grip section, sac, and nib and feed. Lever on Skyline body works.

Interested in trades?

Does the Skykine cap the nib well? Is dryout a major issue?

Haven't experienced any dryout issues so far.
Not looking to trade sorry.
