Nib FINE flexible nib is marked Waterman Ideal Reg US Pat Off 2. It's got good tipping material, good flow, and flexes from fine to broad or double broad with normal pressure (see writing sample below).
Condition Excellent condition. There's just some basic microscratching a fair amount of hand wear, which has worn the imprints a fair amount (see photos).

It's in beautiful condition and writing very nicely with its flexible nib.
