Waterman 52 – Good Flex  (On Ebay)

This is a Waterman 52 in decent condition. There is some browning of the hard rubber, but it’s still pretty dark. The chasing and imprints are worn but still have a little texture. Imprints are crisp. The lever looks brand new. It has a unique accommodation clip. It appears to have had a Waterman clip at one point, but was replaced by this clip. But there are no chips or cracks anywhere on the pen. The nib is nice and smooth with good flex. It has super flex ease and range but not good enough responsiveness.
