Waterman 52 1/2V – Super Flex (On Ebay)
Here is Waterman 52 1/2 V in BCHR and gold-filled trim. The chasing on the pen is still quite good with just a little wear. The imprints are also all good and crisp. The hard rubber has faded some to a dark blackish brown. The large repousse band and lever are both in good condition with no brassing. This cap had neither a clip nor a ring top, which is fairly unusual for 52 1/2 Vs. The 14kt. Waterman #2 nib is a very wet writing F that writes soft and smooth. It has good ease of flex and a nice range going from F to BBB (0.4mm-1.8mm). It also has pretty good responsiveness for how wet the flow is. A great, portable Waterman in very nice condition.
