Makes a great gift, just in time for uni graduations! You can get initials engraved at the top of the pen as it'll look ugly if you get it done on the coloured body itself.

    If you're in Sydney city, I highly recommend Brice's at 155 Castlereagh Street. I actually bought this pen as a farewell gift for my old boss over a year ago and got it engraved there. Should be around $15 for engraving from memory.

    At $130, nope. At $28, heck yeah! ;) You can get Waterman refills for around $10 from department stores; I'm sure they'd be cheaper elsewhere on the internet

        Would you give a Bic Cristal Pen to someone who graduated from uni or who became a partner at a firm?

  How are these different to a Pilot Ballpoint pen? Obviously don’t know much about pens.

    They look better, comes in a box, are refillable and engravable and unlike a Pilot ballpoint pen, can be presented as a gift! 😁

    If you are into practicality definitely stick with the Pilot Ballpoint pens. I tend to write heaps faster with light weight plastic pens. Also its near impossible to tuck a metal pen behind your ears.

    The metal pens from a practical standpoint are more durable and may help you write more neatly (but depends on weight and weight distribution).

    You dont use it, you buy it for looks. In the office you would carry this in your shirt pocket incase you need to sign that big contract you worked 6 months on.

    In the mean time you will use the pilot pen everyday until then end of time and but still talk about the amazing writing qualities of your Waterman pen at Friday drinks.

  Do you guys know if the parker pen refills will work with this pen?
  Thanks

    Nope Parker and Waterman are not interchangeable. Waterman is longer 11.11cm and Parker shorter 9.84cm
    Check out guide and pictures here

    You might be able to hack the pen to accept parker refills by stuffing something to fill the empty space. Although it could get finicky because of the twist on/off mechanism.

    On the other hand, rollerball pens which typically have lids and no on/off mechanism are easy to interchange and hack refills. Waterman, Lamy, Montblanc, Pilot G2 and many others are similar size and interchangeable or easy to hack and fit.

  This is honestly a good deal. I’ve done some research to compare prices against other websites and they typically range between around $50 (on Amazon) and $100. There’s also a bit more of a saving to be had for the white version, which is $29 before discount:

  I could be wrong, but waterman still offer a lifetime guarantee possibly.

  Thanks for this OP!

  Bought a white and a bronze.

  Waterman pens are always great to own - especially at these prices.

  Didn't get the extra discount, but still excellent value.
