Waterman 0752 – Super Flex  (On Ebay)

This Waterman 0752 (a 52 with gold filled trim) has the old Waterman numbering system which would date it pre-1917. The clip states 18kt. gold filled, which I assume is the case with the band as well. The BCHR is faded to a dark brown and the chasing is quite worn throughout. The side imprint is worn, though readable and the back imprint is still crisp. There is some brassing on the clip and some on the bottom edge of the band. The box of the lever is brassed, though polished to a shine. The lever itself looks pretty good. The 14kt. #2 Waterman nib is a good one. It’s a smooth and wet fine (0.4mm) that flexes up to 2.2mm. A great example of an early 52.
