Waterman 458 Sterling Silver Overlay fountain pen 58 nib 8
April 6, 2018 by admin | Filed under waterman.
Early Waterman’s fountain pen, 458 with heavy sterling silver overlay. The 58 was Waterman’s largest regular model from the hard rubber era, and the filigree was a upscale model. The 4 prefix in 458 would indicate it has the sterling silver overlay on the cap and body. The early 458 pens did not have the 4 designation. This pen does not have the 4. Posted, this pen is 7.75 long, and it weighs 1.5 oz. Capped, it is just under 6″ in length and 5/8″ diameter. Huge original and correct #8 Waterman gold nib. Sterling silver clip, lever box, and nib all marked with Waterman Ideal emblem/lettering, however, the overlay is not. It is possible a jeweler professionally created/installed this overlay, and if so, did a beautiful job. Professionally restored by Penmeister Bradford Torelli (new ink sac, cleaned filling mechanism).
