5.0 out of 5 stars New edition of an old favourite
The Waterman Expert, being a little larger than the Waterman Hemisphere, is one of my all time favourite fountain pens. The special edition "L'Essence du Bleu", has a gorgeous dark navy blue laquer barrel and a brass cap, with an engraved wave pattern and Palladium plating. Like previous models, the Expert is very solid and comfortable. The Fine nib, wrote superbly, straight out of the box with no adjustments needed. The pen is 12.5cm long when uncapped. Alternatively, the cap can be posted if preferred and goes on deeply and secures with a click.The pen uses Waterman Cartridges (of which one blue one was included) and can also use a converter, although none came with the pen. This would need to be bought separately.It ships in an attractive gift box. My pen was delayed for about two weeks in being despatched but the pen itself is a joy.
5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful pen that made for a very successful gift.
This was bought as a present for my husband who is a lover of fountain pens, and it was very well received. The presentation box is well-made and attractive, and seems like it could continue to house the pen safely if you only wanted to use it occasionally. I think my husband will be using it pretty constantly though! The pen itself is a lovely weight and the ink flows well to the nib - and did so as soon as the cartridge was fitted. It's made clear that a converter will need to be purchased separately if you prefer ink from a well. There's not much else to say really. Waterman is an established, high-quality maker of fountain pens and this is well-reflected in this particular product. I was happy to gift it, knowing that it would be a hit.
5.0 out of 5 stars Solid and stylish
This is a beautifully designed pen. When I picked it up, the first thing I noticed was the weight. Some fountain pens are light and cheap; this is not. It is perfectly weighted. Critically, when I put in a cartridge, and started writing, the ink flowed immediately - no early hesitation, which is common in fountain pens. That impressed me. The pen has a ‘wet’ flow - constant and generous, no matter the writing speed. I have other other fountain pens, including a Mont Blanc, that are best for a slow write, and be a little scratchy, but this pen kept its flow whatever my writing speed. If you’re looking for a solid and stylish fountain pen that will do justice to your writing, give this a go.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love these pens....looks impressive too.
I really enjoy writing with these pens and this one feels great and looks stylist and exceeded my expectations. Was a gift off my daughter so perfect present, happy father.
4.0 out of 5 stars Nice pen at a reasonable price
This is a very nice pen at a reasonable price, it comes in a standard Waternan gift box which is similar to what you get with Parker pens regardless of how much you pay, the cheap ones the expensive ones they all come in the same box which is basically a card box with an outer sleeve the cartridge is under the pen.Comes with a blue cartridge which I would rather be black but blue seems to be the default standard free cartridge for some reason. The pen does not come with a convertor so you will have to buy that separate which is a bit of a pain especially if you are paying the RRP then you should reasonably expect to have the convertor with it.The pen is a nice design, is fairly light in the hand and writes well with a gold nib, a good point for this price of watch. The cap is a snap on type and I would say its a nice pen if reasonably priced. Further up the tree I would recommend the Visconti line which start with steel nibs but I have found very flexible and a delight to use. This one is very nice to use, doesn't come across as too top heavy and is good as a personal pen or a gift.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality pen
Really like the look of this pen, has a good weight to it, purchased as a gift.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love my pen
I haven't used a fountain pen in 40yrs. My goodness this pen and ink has shown strides in technical advances.The pen writes so smooth and ink dries really quickly.UPDATE. I find it frustrating that if not kept warm and vertical the ink appears to stop flowing and takes time and loads of scribbles to flow again.SUSPECT it might be ink issue rather than pen but bought together. Would be interested if others have this problem.
5.0 out of 5 stars What a luxurious pen!
I’ve bought many pens from a variety of pen brands in the past and their pens can be very hit and miss. Although when buying this, I had no doubts of not being exceptional quality as I have never been disappointed by the build quality of Waterman pens. This pen is just beautiful. It would make for an amazing present as it comes in a really nice presentation box or perhaps just a nice gift to yourself. This pen would be suitable for both men and women. It does feel thicker in the hand compared to most ballpoint pens but I would say it’s suitable for most hand sizes; large or small. It also has some nice weight to it, which I think adds to the luxury of this pen. The gold trim on this pen really makes it look like it’s worth a lot more than what it is. For the price, you are getting a really good pen, from a renowned brand, that can definitely compete with pens from the likes of Montblanc at a third of the price. This pen will certainly turn some eyes and get attention. It is also just a pleasure to write with. It does come with blue ink so if you prefer black you will need to buy one in addition to the pen.
Produto de ótima qualidade e estética
Caneta desliza bem na escrita, sem falhas, porém inferior na qualidade de deslizamento em relação a uma esferográfica também da Waterman que já tive. Forma adequada para o posicionamento da mão (algumas canetas têm ressaltos que incomodam os dedos na pegada). Boa distribuição de peso pelo corpo, ajudando no conforto da escrita. Além disso, muito bonita e com ótimo acabamento
Great gift
I had this laser engraved and gave as a gift. They said they loved it!
Great Pen!
Smooth writing without blotches or puddles. Looks great, nice weight and comfortable diameter. I have not experienced any leaking or other issues noted in other reviews. Be sure to buy the genuine pen from a reputable source and it should be fine.
Simply, a gorgeous writing implement
Had been in the market for a Mont Blanc for a college roommate who has reached the height of the legal profession in Virginia. However, since my days in private practice, decades ago, the prices of Mont Blanc fountain pens have increased dramatically.Upon opening the case to examine this fountain pen, I was amazed at the quality of the pen and its aesthetic. It feels great in my Size Large hand (similar size as my buddy) and the finish is so smooth.A wonderful pen at an excellent price.Blessings 😊
Original waterman pen
Great quality Waterman pen at an affordable price! It has a similar feel to a Montblanc, making it an excellent value for those who appreciate fine writing instruments.
