Waterman Pens
About Waterman
Country: FranceWaterman was founded over 130 years ago in 1870 and is a French company. Waterman creates some of the most elegant and desirable writing instruments in the world today. Waterman pens, known for creating the first even flow fountain pen over 100 years ago, continues creating precise Parisian luxury writing instruments, which led to the explosion of fountain pen use and enjoyment.
The "Ideal Pen Company" was renamed in 1888 to the LE WATERMAN Company. Originally created because a salesman, Lewis Edson Waterman, lost a sale because of a leaking fountain pen. Waterman invents the "Three Fissure Feed" system that for the first time prevents excessive discharge of fountain pen ink. The Waterman Pen Company has a rich heritage or awards and achievements for their ingenuity, design and quality with their outstanding writing instruments.
Waterman pens come with a 3 year warranty. Warranty information is included with each Waterman pen. For details on a specific Waterman pen fee free to ask.
Pen Chalet is an Authorized Dealer of Waterman pens and writing instruments.

Nice ink. Since this is my first time using bottled ink it was a tad messy using the converter. Be careful if your wearing expensive clothes or around nice furniture when filling your pen.

This is my favorite pen. I love the look of it and it writes like a dream. I got the medium nib which i thoroughly enjoy. That nib just slides across the paper on a lush liquid line. I cannot say enough about this pen. It is the most I have paid for a fountain pen thus far but it is well worth the money.

Waterman ink has always been my favorite. Writes smoothly and doesn't clog even when a pen hasn't been used for a few days. Although bottled ink is less expensive, I always like to take cartridges with me when I travel to avoid the potential for spills.

Come on. It's Waterman Ink. This fountain pen ink is so reliable and well-behaved that if a pen doesn't write well with it, you know there's something wrong with the pen, not the ink! It makes dry nibs write wetter than they will with nearly any other ink, and it calms down wet nibs, or those with infernal nib creep problems (hello, Lamy).
The colors may not be the most exciting in the world, but they're not ugly at all. They're classy and can fit into many professional and other formal writing applications with ease, even with off-the-beaten path colors like purple or turquoise. When you need to write that thank you letter to a major donor, or to the CEO who granted lowly you a job interview, Waterman Blue or Black will be the perfect ink for the occasion. It may even be required for such situations.
Best of all, Waterman sells at one of the most reasonable price points out there for bottled ink, and comes in a bottle specifically designed to get every last drop of ink out of it. Just turn it onto one of the facets when the supply gets low, and you'll be able to get your nib in there to draw up what's left.
Buy with confidence.

I love Waterman's ink. I use Serenity blue at work so I thought I would give their Brown a shot. I'm not a fan of brown, but I wanted another ink beside black I could use in a professional setting. So I bought the brown. It shades nicely and I like it very much. Once again Pen Chalet gave great service.

Good, reliable ink. Flows well in all the pens I've used it in. Bought it for use in some of my vintage pens on the suggestion of a friend, who assured me it would give me no trouble, and I've had no trouble in the time I've used it.

I love Waterman ink, in general. When this came I had my doubts about the color, but it's a lovely dark purple and matches the new Lamy dark lilac pen I just purchased. Yay!

I LOVE all of the Waterman ink colors. The one I reach for the most is the Inspired Blue (formerly South Sea). The color and the shading are gorgeous and always brighten my day. It looks good in any pen I put it in.

I was looking for a purple ink, and after looking around settled for this one. The color is nice and bright, and became the instant favorite of my daughter. Ink flow is very good, and drying time is short.
Excellent value for the money.

Waterman ink has worked very well for me in several pens. It flows nicely and cleans up easily from all my fountain pens. My favorite colors are tender purple, inspired blue, and mysterious blue. I find this to be a great quality ink for a great price.

I bought the Waterman Inspired Blue (used to be South Sea) and it is a lovely deep turquoise color. The shading is wonderful. I love this ink and put it in many of my fountain pens. It writes beautifully in all of them.
I have all the other colors of Waterman ink and they are all wonderful, bright & cheerful.
Thank You Pen Chalet for the always outstanding customer service!
