Waterman 52 – Good Flex  (On Ebay)

Here is a gorgeous Waterman 52 in close to mint condition.  The black hard rubber on the cap is slightly faded. Not even brown. Just a slightly duller black. The rest of the pen is shiny, jet black. The chasing is very good and the imprints are clear and crisp. There is little to no brassing on the gold filled trim. Some light scratching on the band if you look close. Band imprint says “N.Y.M.B.S.A 1-15-1926.” The nib is a very nice Waterman Ideal #2 14kt. nib with good flex. It writes a very smooth fine line (0.4mm) and flexes up to 1.7mm.
