Title: great pen to have
Review: I haven't used fountain pen since elementary school. It comes a long way since after. This Waterman is mid-range in the line, and it is finished as such. You will find better finished pen on the market for a higher price. The French craftsmanship on this Waterman is right priced.The weight on it shows the quality at the first touch. The length of the body fits most of hands. You can also clip the cap on the back for bigger hands, but that increases the weight again. The fountain is a clear tube with a screw. you screw it down to push the air out, dip the nib into ink, and screw it backup. Every thing is easy and clean. I shake the pen vertically hardly several times, one tinny drop of ink indeed came out. The ink wouldn't be spilled out under normal carrying condition.Even thought this Waterman doesn't really stands out in the pack, you wouldn't regret to take it.
