WATERMAN 58 ca. 1923-1927 
Model:
| Waterman 58 Ripple
| Grade:
| Excellent + to Near Mint
| Nib Width:
| Smooth medium with medium flex, marked "Waterman Ideal Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. 8 Made in U.S.A."
| Length Capped:
| 6 1/16"
| Comments:
| Next to the #20, this was the largest pen Waterman made. An outstanding example with strong molten imprints--deep and sharp. Clip ball has a line of brassing, 2-4% of brassing on cap band. A crisp pen with wonderful ripple marking with no signs of oxidation. The only flaw, if it can be called that, is it closes with a quarter turn. A minor issue, but stated for accuracy. It may be a long time before you see another example of this scarce and desirable pen in this condition. Will make a terrific writer should one want to put it to paper.

| Length Capped:
| 5 1/2"
| Comments:
| Cap band replaced. Outstanding imprints--deep and sharp. Clip ball has a line of brassing, 2-4% of brassing on upper edge of cap band, a tiny amount of brassing on the edge of the "globe" on the lever. A fine pen with very nice ripple hard rubber.
| Price:
| $495

WATERMAN 7 RED BAND ca. 1926-1930 
Model:
| Waterman 7 Red Band
| Grade:
| Excellent - (would be Excellent if not for the minor flaw-see "Comments.") | Nib Width:
| Correct #7 "Red" nib, medium-flexible fine nib. (Not as flexible as the "Pink," but much easier to control. Many find this nib a more practical writer.)
| Length Capped:
| 5 1/2"
| Comments:
| Cap band replaced. Weak imprints. Clip ball has a line of brassing, 5% of brassing on cap band, small amount of edge brassing on the lever "Globe." Small amount of plating loss on the clip. Inside cap lip has a very small chip (3mm wide by 0.5mm deep). This cannot be seen from the outside as the cap rim band completely covers it. Price reflects this very minor flaw.
