Here's the challenge with Waterman CFs: the cartridges and converters are no longer made and are close to impossible to find. To use these pens, most modern day owners resort to refilling the cartridges with a syringe. Towards that end, we will provide the buyer with a used Waterman CF cartridge which can be refilled. |
Color | Stainless steel barrel and cap, with gold plated trim. Parker called this combination "Flighter," and we apply to it other brands as well |
Nib | 18k nib is a broad, flexible, gentle left oblique. Very smooth. |
Condition | Excellent condition, though the barrel is a little worn and shiny in spots, with minor scratches (see photos). There's a bit of hand wear and microscratching on the section as well. The plating on the clip is quite good, which is nice to see because the plating is usually rather worn on the CFs. |
