COMMENTS: Waterman 454 in black hard rubber with a sterling silver overlay throughout the pen. Hand edged, which is harder to find and also more valuable. The sterling silver overlay is the focal point of this pen. Fitted with a 14k Waterman Ideal #4 Wet Noodle nib that writes a medium/broad to triple broad line. Professionally adjusted nib, ultra smooth, and capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. The iridium tipping in this nib is very rounded, making it an ideal nib for someone who writes very fast or to someone who is new to flex nibs and flex writing. This is a very user friendly nib. The sterling silver is in good condition. It has some scratches throughout the overlay, but no dents or dings. Clean indicia on the barrel with no engravings or personalizations. Overall, this is a very clean pen. Lever filler. New sac. Made in USA in the 1920s.

COMMENTS: Waterman 415 eyedropper pen with a sterling silver filigree overlay over smooth black rubber. Basket weave pattern. Clipped cap. The 415 model is a Waterman 15 with the sterling silver overlay. The 15 model is a significantly larger model than the more common 12 model. Longer, wider and with a much larger nib. Fitted with a 14k Waterman Ideal New York #5 superflex nib (borderline line a wet noodle) that writes a fine to triple broad line. Professionally adjusted nib, ultra smooth and capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. The sterling silver filigree has light dents at the end of the cap and some light scratches, tarnish and patina throughout its exterior. This is common in sterling silver pens as sterling silver is a softer material that is more prone to dents and scratching. However, it is still in very good condition, and much better than average for a pen that is 110+ years of age. No engraving or personalization on the indicia of the barrel. Great imprints on the cap and barrel. The black rubber is in great condition and has great coloring. Eyedropper
 filler. Serviced. Made in USA c.1910
