Waterman 52 1/2V Cardinal Red – Super Flex (On Ebay)
This is a nice little Waterman 52 1/2 V in Cardinal Red hard rubber. The red hard rubber is fairly rare in Waterman’s, and these pens have quite a retro look about them. This pen is in very good condition. Imprints are very good. Gold filled trim shows little to no brassing. The 14kt. #2 Waterman nib is an ultra buttery smooth Medium stub. It’s wet and feels like a pillow on paper. It also has very good flex ability up to 2.1mm. You will get some railroading if you really push the flex on this nib, but with a good ink and not maxing it out repeatedly you get some very good flex.
