6 carenes

I own four old Waterman's -- one Hundred Year Pen, a couple of Ideals, and a small "ladies pen." That's about all I know about them.

January 10, 2011

Just upped my total to three - two Harmonies and a Hemisphere.

January 28, 2011

They're all modern Watermans, the ones I own:

1 medium nib Expert (metallic blue and gold)

1 medium nib Exception (metallic 'raspberry')

1 stub nib Carene (black and silver)

1 rollerball Carene (metallic brownish)

I must say that the Carene with stub nib is my favorite (although my vintage Montblanc Classic broad oblique is also great).

Does this make me a collector? :hmm1: Do I want to be one? I do find fountainpens very interesting (there's also some parkers, a sheaffer and some Union pens so... :embarrassed_smile: ).

Regards,

Christiaan

Just the one, a stainless steel Hemisphere. Not fancy, not expensive, but mine :-)

I own four Waterman pens, and I don't know what any of them are--which is one of the reasons I joined FPN.

One seems to be vintage. It has a deco-style clip with "Watermans" on it. It seems to be red plastic and fills by untwisting the end of the pen (the seam is nearly invisible). It has two round ink windows, and on the nib is: Watermans 585 IDEAL Reg US Pat. Off.

My guess is that the name on the nib is that name it's known by?

I've googled it but haven't found any info on when it was made. Can anyone here tell me more, please?

Just filled it with Aurora black, and it's a pleasure to write with.

I love my Watermans! I have 3 Laureats. 1 beautiful Fountain pen in a mottled blue and black finish with a matching rollerball, and a marbled green Laureat rollerball. I love to use the rollerballs at work, they beats a 29 cent stick pen any day!

I save the fountain pen for letters and cards. I love the weight of them in my hand, they are so perfectly balanced.
