Nib Waterman Ideal New York 4. It has excellent flex. Though not a wet noodle, we consider it full flex. Lots of tipping material. It goes from fine to double broad with just a little pressure. See writing sample below.
Condition Excellent condition. There's a crack in the underlying hard rubber that you can see if you look inside the cap, it is short and extends into the corner of one of the open filigree areas. Some dents on the top of the cap (see photo). Otherwise, no cracks, chips, large dents, or personalization. The hard rubber is smooth and a nice deep black, no fading. The sterling overlay is gorgeous, no scratches. The clip is well-secured and in excellent condition.
