“i got 13 months out of it before the ink replacement jammed. My first Waterman (a Phineas) last 20 years, and i have two backups that I loved til I lost them. This one tolerated a couple of brand refills (at $5 - $6 each) but crashed the first time I tried a highly rated generic refill (Jaymo).”
“I bought this pen as a high school graduation gift and the recipient really loved it. When she graduates college, I’ll step it up and give her a Waterman cartridge pen.”
