Waterman 14 Eyedropper – SUPER FLEX (On Ebay)
Here is a Waterman 14 eyedropper that definitely has a vintage look to it. It has browned pretty significantly to a light to medium brown, although under the cap is still black. Chasing is worn almost entirely off the pen. The imprint on the barrel is pretty worn though very readable, but the “14” is still quite crisp. The nib however is fantastic. It’s a very smooth Medium that that flexes up 2.0mm with very little pressure. It is close to wet noodle ease of flex. The nib looks a bit oblique, but it doesn’t write or feel that way. This is a great writer as well as flex nib.
