Waterman #7 Pink Nib


Pen #20 is a 1921 Waterman in a beautiful Red Ripple. It’s a #7 lever-filler with a “Pink” color-coded nib and matching band at the top of the cap. Waterman produced 10 nib “colors” for the #7 pen: red, green, purple, pink, blue, yellow, brown, grey, black, and white (an example of the “white” has yet to be found). Each “color” corresponded to the style of the nib.  The “Pink” is usually “fine/triple-flexible” with the highest flexibility of all the nibs, and is very popular these days. Color coded nibs were used by Waterman in other pens such as the #5, Ink-Vue, #32, 92, 94, and others.  The #7 is the largest and combined with its flexibility is what makes this nib so desirable and coveted by collectors and users alike: a holy grail of pendom!

      Hi Jeremy, thanks for writing. A Waterman #7 with a “Pink” triple-flexible nib. in near mint condition, sells these days for $1,200+. I am very sorry, the one pictured (#20) has already sold. Gary

    Hi Gary,

    I’m hoping to locate a Watermans #7 Pink nib. Any chance you might have one available.

    Also, I keep missing out on the MB 320 Burgundy FP. Any remaining for sale ?

    Thanks,
    Robb

      Hi Robb, very sorry, no Waterman 7 “Pink” nib on-hand. Regarding missing the Montblanc 320 Burgundy pens, you might consider becoming a paid subscriber ($10 for four issues) to get to see new offerings a week earlier. Should we get another 320 Burgundy you would have a much better shot at it this way. https://gopens.com/subscribe-to-the-quarterly-vintage-pen-catalog/ Very best, Gary

    Hi?
    I am terribly looking for a Waterman 7 pink fountain pen.
    Do you have this pen?
    If you are selling, I would like to buy.
    Thank you.

    Hello Greg. Do you have a superflex / wet noodle waterman pink nib or black nib? Thanks for your consideration.
    Kind Regards, Justin

      Sorry Justin, I do not. I do have a Waterman “Artist” safety pen with an equivalent nib. Gary

    Do you have a Waterman 58 red ripple flexible nib or #7 with a Pink nib in good condition.
