Five Waterman Pens on a theme.

 

Show yours. :-)

 

Have a great weekend, folks!

I'm totally digging that 2nd one with the checker plate pattern. What is it?

[buntoro]

Thanks!

 

That's the L'Etalon.

Theme?

[buntoro]

Any common theme that your 5 pens will fit into. Eg: silver, black, minis, maxis, 1910's, ripples, BCHR, metals, gold, smooth, ugly, beauties, cheap, clipless, ringtops, anything to your imagination that fits into any theme. Hope this is a little clearer. Looking forward to see some nice pics. :-)

Five pens, huh? Well, how about you lop off the two on the right, then. I don't want to take another picture. Here are 7 pens - Waterman's from 1895-1905 - BHR with Fine Silver overlays. Much rarer than the Sterling silver overlays. Here you go:

Wow! Really nice and rare! Thanks!

Nice show, Buntoro and Procyon

 

BTW, like that l'Etalon very much as well...

I know what a theme is. So, those are silvery? They looked pretty divergent, and I didn't see commonality.

I do like the composition of the picture. Try not to clip any part though.

 

It would also look nice in black and white.

 

I'll have the Edson please.

Me too, but I don't have five Edsons…yet

 

But I'll improvise and create a "Waterman Crime Scene"

Steve, your theme is missing this,

 

 

a spent cartridge...

Theme...Waterman Piston Cartridges...all 5 are different and from different eras.

Yes, how could I have missed that! The spent cartridges and semi-automatic converters

Very nice FPs buntoro. I like the sterling silver FP mainly with gold trims.
Thanks

I missed this picture earlier, 5 old pens resaced.

Those are gorgeous! I am especially intrigued by the keyhole nib and its origin that seems to say "Canada." I'm sure it's been posted before, but is the keyhole breather hole specific to a nib size or style? I know off-topic, but if you have a larger picture of that nib, I'd love to see it

I know very little about these older nibs, be they keyhole, round or heart style. This one has F.D.W. stamped on one side and D 14 585 on tother.

 

[stevesurf]

These are so beautiful buntoro; unfortunately with my limited experience, I can only recognize the top pen. Are they all silver plated on platinum or sterling?

Force, the nib is gorgeous; thanks for posting. It's strange but I haven't seen one stamped Canada; a link to a video of a keyhole flex nib (USA) is below. Looks like a smooth writer and I assume it has a decent amount of flex.
