The Waterman Expert Mk.1 was first produced, in France, around the late 1980s. This is a mint, boxed example in a very scarce colour, with no signs of use.
The Expert Mk.1 differed from the later versions in that it was lighter in weight, an important consideration at the time, had a slightly different trim, and a much more attractive, sculpted, flat sided, two tone nib with a distinctive elongated breather hole. The original pen, this one, had a relatively short production run and is quite rare and much sought after.
The pen is finished in vivid green with a deep, lustrous shine and 23Ct. Gold filled trim. A cartridge/converter filler, the pen is supplied in the original, box, with an ink catridge so it is ready for use.
A Waterman Expert Mk.1 is quite a rare in it's own right and a mint example in this outrageous colour comes along very infrequently. It is a jewel of a pen.
