1. Waterman 32 Dark Blue and Yellow Fountain Pen - Flex Nib, Restored
Pictures: https://imgur.com/a/1AJKlvA
Appears to be a dark blue and yellow celluloid material with silver trim.
Lever Filler - Restored with new sac, easily sucks up ink
14K Gold Waterman #2 New York Nib - Fine point, good writer, good flex, goes from f to BB, see writing sample.
The nib has a bit of crease to it; i think this was likely done possibly being bent in past and re-straightened; the nib writes and flexes great so its only cosmetic.
Pen is in good condition for it's age without any major scratches, chips, or cracks, but like any vintage/used pen it may have light scratches/signs of use.
Light scratches present on cap and barrel, brassing to silver colored trim of cap band, clip, and lever. Waterman Imprint crisp and legible.
Pen measures roughly 5 inches capped
Asking $88

Beautiful Blue Celluloid Material
Lever Filler - Restored with new sac, easily sucks up ink
14K Gold Nib - Fine point, good writer, Semi flex, goes from f to BB, see writing sample. Nib might be slightly misaligned but it writes well.
Pen is in good condition for it's age without any major scratches but like any vintage/used pen it may have light scratches/signs of use.
There is a small chip at the cap lip, cosmetic doesnt affect function of cap. The pen is missing its original clip. There is a hairline crack at top of cap, near where clip is normally inserted; likely happened when clip was removed/damaged. Cap still screws onto barrel perfectly.
Pen measures roughly 4.5 inches capped
I haven't tried to use the waterman pencil which comes with this pen; I have no experience with dealing with vintage pencils. The pencil is sold as-is with pen; i dont know if it works.
Asking $72

3. Waterman 52 1/2V Ebonite Fountain Pen - Flex Nib, New Sac, Missing Lever Box
Pictures: https://imgur.com/a/axzc6b6
Temporary Coin Filler - Restored with new sac, easily sucks up ink; to use just insert a coin and push the pressure bar against the sac inside the barrel and sac will suck up ink. The lever box was broken with pen and i will include it with sale to be used as parts if you wish.
14K Gold Nib - Medium stubbish point, good writer, good flex, goes from M to BB, see writing sample.The nib has a bit of crease to it; i think this was likely done possibly being bent in past and re-straightened; the nib writes and flexes great so its only cosmetic.
Occasionally when writing with barely any pressure i find that it writes slightly dry; but the moment i put slightly more pressure ink flow is fantastic and writes great. Just be sure to write with a little pressure and pen will write great. (I figure the normal person writes with some pressure anyway so this shouldn't be an issue for most people).
Pen is in good condition for it's age without any major scratches, chips, or cracks, but like any vintage/used pen it may have light scratches/signs of use.
Light scratches on barrel, ebonite material has brownish oxidization to it, Pen appears to be clipless and without ringtop but someone must've put a custom clip on it long ago.
Pen measures roughly 4.375 inches capped
Asking $68
