Waterman Stalwart – Good Flex – (On Ebay)
Here is the Waterman Stalwart in a grey pearl celluloid body. I really enjoy the depth of these pearl grey bodies with gold accents. There is only light surface scratching on the body. The gold-filled trim looks great with only some brassing on the clip’s rivet on top of the cap. There is also some minor brassing on the back edge of the clip if you happen to look back there. The Waterman #2 14kt. Nib is a beautiful writing, soft and wet XF. The flex on this is a bit too stiff to grade as “super flex,” but that doesn’t mean you can’t do some nice work with it. Better than most modern “flex” nibs. The range of flex is from XF (0.3mm to 1.6mm). In my opinion the Watermans of this era are underrated. They have nice durable bodies, top notch accents, and wonderful nibs.
