Waterman Pen Type Identification

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

 

I'm pretty new here, so I hope this kind of post is okay (tell me if it isn't).

 

I have a question about two Waterman fountain pens I own. There are very similiar, both marble-ish blue, but one is a bit darker than the other. The caps of the pens differ slightly, one of the caps has a logo on it and the other doesn't.

 

I have owned and used these pens for years without really knowing what kind of fountain pens they are. I have a suspicion that they might be Waterman Hemispheres but the recent Hemispheres look really different. I didn't buy them myself, they were a gift from my grandfather (who doesn't remember them, sadly).

 

Do any of you know what pen this is?

Not a Hémisphère; they had a slanting top similar to the CF line. More likely is the Apostrophe. The difference between the two is just an advertising symbol as they were often sold in batches to different companies as advertising material or awards. IIRC it was sold mid 90s up until about five years or so ago.

Thank you so much!

 

I think my grandfather did get it as a company gift so that ID seems to be spot on!

And welcome home. Pull up a stump and set a spell.

They are later versions of the Apostrophe ... early versions had Waterman / Paris imprinted on the barrel rather than on the cap ring ...
