I just acquired a Waterman 52 1/2 V pen, and the pressure bar has an approx. 30 deg bend in it. I'm pretty sure that's why the seller unloaded it, noting that the lever is broken. I don't think the lever is broken, but I'm concerned about how fragile the pressure bar is. Any tips on straightening this out and minimizing the chance of truly breaking it?

I'll try to post some pics when I return home.

  I also picked up a TUZU. I quite like the blue color and basic Sailor steel nib. It's a good basic EDC at the Japanese price. It is a quite wet writer. I imagine lefties will enjoy the nib angle customization. I haven't tried playing with that aspect.

  Thanks for posting, great information on the Tuzu by Sailor. Cannot wait for it to appear on Amazon USA.
