Description.

This is a lovely example of an early Safety Fountain Pen. This is the Watermans No.12½S Safety pen in Chased Black Hard Rubber. The chased pattern is very worn and only just visible.

The nib is stunning, with light pressure it writes with a smooth extra fine line measuring 0.3mm wide, with more pressure it flexes to a Double Double Broad measuring over 2mm!!!! It is silky smooth through its entire range and is lovely to write with.

The pen has been fully serviced with new seals fitted and is ready to write. It will be provided with an eyedropper with which to fill it.

This is a lovely example of this classic pen. It is not in the best condition but forget about that, think NIB!!!

Condition: Grade B
