Waterman C/F converter

September 25, 2005

I just purchased a nice, older Waterman C/F fountain pen and am looking for a converter that will fit it. Has anyone had any experience with these pens and can recommend a converter?

Thousand Thanks,

Robert

Okay, I found the answer to my own question. It seems the converters for the old C/F fountain pens are very hard to come by. Good news! The Waterman service center in Janesville still has plenty of them. They are $11.50 each with a $5 shipping fee. So, if anyone needs a mint converter for your old C/F pen, better call 800-237-8736!!

Wow, good job tracking them down!

I was checking out an old "Pen Doctor" column from 2003 on Pentrace (link to column here) and the last question deals with using international cartridges in a Waterman C/F with a metal sleeve.

A previous "Pen Doctor" article mentioned that Pendemonium had some NOS cartridges, for the C/F but they're long gone....

Thanks for the info, Robert!
