Waterman 52 1/2V – Super Flex (On Ebay)
A very nice BCHR 52 1/2V. It has minimal browning. The chasing is still pretty good, and the imprints are very crisp. The nickel plated lever is still in good condition. It has a Waterman #2 that writes normally as an XF (0.3mm) and flexes up to BBB (1.8mm). This was a hard nib to grade. It’s a bit stiff for what I would normally grade a Super Flex, but it is quite responsive and the range makes very some very good flexing.
