Waterman 52V – SUPER FLEX (On Ebay)

Here is a nice Waterman 52V in BCHR. The pen is not mint but is in good condition. The black hard rubber has lighted to a dark brown. The original chasing has mostly faded away. Imprints are worn but present and readable. There is a small hole in the side of the barrel. It does not pose any danger to the pen, but it wasn’t originally there. The gold filled trim on the pen looks lovely and I see no brassing. The ring top, however, is missing. The 14kt. Waterman #2 is a difficult to find XXF (0.2mm). It writes normally quite smoothly with a medium wetness. When flexed it the range is not huge going up to 1.5mm (BB). But due to its very fine tip, it is quite snappy allowing for some nice flex even with minimal pressure.
