Waterman Expert Ballpoint Pen, Gloss Black with Chrome Trim, Medium Point with Blue Ink Cartridge, Gift Box

Beautiful pen. Slightly on the heavier side but writes smooth and looks great. The box it came in was not very clean though. It looked like it was handled a few times.

They even didn't publish my earlier review.. I didn't expect this from Amazon, doesn't look like a genuine product and now I don't have the strength to write as they will not publish it.

There are scratches on the Pen which indicates that either it is a seconds product or has been used before. Clearly shows lack of proper QC even for such an expensive item. Disappointing...

Price could be a little less

Quality top notch

Very good

Nice product and nice packing... Good for gifting and personal use.

Excellent product, writes smooth and has a good grip.

This Waterman Expert ballpoint pen writes incredibly smoothly. It is very well made and nicely weighted. I Would have much preferred to receive it with black ink present in the refill because blue ink does not photocopy as well. I bought some additional black ink refills and they are well made too. In my opinion, the Waterman product is better constructed than the similarly price Parker Sonnet item.The three year warranty is a measure of the manufacturer’s confidence. If you would like to own a really high quality ballpoint pen; which feels very nice in the hand and is well weighted plus it writes very smoothly, then you can buy this item with alacrity (at this great price £46.53 instead of £78.00) and have no regrets.

I’ve bought many pens from a variety of pen brands in the past and their pens can be very hit and miss. Although when buying this, I had no doubts of not being exceptional quality as I have never been disappointed by the build quality of Waterman pens. This pen is just beautiful. It would make for an amazing present as it comes in a really nice presentation box or perhaps just a nice gift to yourself. This pen would be suitable for both men and women. It does feel thicker in the hand compared to most ballpoint pens but I would say it’s suitable for most hand sizes; large or small. It also has some nice weight to it, which I think adds to the luxury of this pen. The gold trim on this pen really makes it look like it’s worth a lot more than what it is. For the price, you are getting a really good pen, from a renowned brand, that can definitely compete with pens from the likes of Montblanc at a third of the price. This pen will certainly turn some eyes and get attention. It is also just a pleasure to write with. It does come with blue ink so if you prefer black you will need to buy one in addition to the pen.

I bought this pen through Amazon to complement the fountain pen I had been given as a present. The design match is perfect: smart, not over-stated, good to look at.As with the fountain pen, this pen has a good weight to it and is well balanced, That makes it easy to use.Above all, it seems well made. The ballpoint is moved in and out using a twist mechanism. I have experienced actions like this from another manufacturer and very quickly the mechanism gave out - something inside stopped gripping which meant that, no matter how much I twisted it, the ballpoint would not move. On this pen the design is better: the cap grips on with a satisfying click and the whole thing has a feeling to it of being robust and well made. I am anticipating many years of use.The pen arrived in a two-tone blue presentation box with a generic instruction leaflet - superfluous really. The presentation is good which means that it would make a very acceptable gift.For the price (just under £40 when I bought it) this seems excellent value for money. Good value, well made, a fine design - everything is positive. Recommended.

one of the best pens I've ever bought!! writes very smoothly and very nice nib. the ink is great. I would definitely recommend. I was hesitant to buy it due to the price as buying online is a risk if you don't like it, but I had no reason to. I am working my way towards more expensive ballpoint pens as my career progresses so I think this was a great place to start.. no reservations at all!

Purchased this pen for a 90th birthday gift ,I was absolutely delighted with the presentation and looks of the penand the recipient is over the moon with it
