COMMENTS: Waterman 12 PSF in Black Chased Hard Rubber and nickel trim. Clipped cap. The 12 PSF is the predecessor model to the 52 model. PSF stands for Personal Self-Filler pen, alluding to the fact it is not an eyedropper pen, filling mechanism which predominated in the early 1910s. Fitted with its correct 14k Waterman Ideal New York #2 wet noodle nib that writes a Medium to Triple Broad line. Professionally smoothed nib, very smooth, and capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. In my flexibility scale from zero to 100, this nib is graded at 90. Likewise, in my flexibility scale from zero to 10, this nib is graded at 9. Both of these attributes make this an ultra rare, a very desirable and a very valuable flexible nib. This pen is in Mint condition. It shows very little signs of use. Perfect black rubber color with lots of black luster. Crisp chasing on the hard rubber. Perfect barrel imprints and perfect nickel trim with no brassing at all. Lever filler pen. New sac. Presentation box and colored paper insert included. Case is in fantastic condition as well.
