The Story
Waterman's neo classic Le Man Rhapsody is an all time great fountain pen, released in 1999 as a special version of the Le Man 200. It is a full sized pen measuring over 14cm in length, with a weighty feel in the hand, the cap posts securely with a click to the rear of the barrel giving a full sized pen a wand like feel. The nib is a superb 18k gold medium, which writes with delightful softness and a touch of springiness for a hint of line variation
The pen comes fully serviced and ready to write, it accepts a Waterman ink converter or Waterman Ink Cartridges, all of which are included along with instructions and hard case.
Imperfections
There are no major imperfections to note, no chips cracks or engravings.
There are only the lightest signs of use, tiny micro scratching present, and some plating loss to the nib, but otherwise a mint example. Superb
Writing style
The nib writes a smooth medium line. Do checkout the writing sample in the photo gallery.
