It does not happen so often to find immaculate silver overlays. This Waterman 452 1/2 with French overlays with alternating panels of barley and lined decoration is just as perfect as perfect can be.

The overlay and the accommodation clip show French hallmarks without marks, dings or scratches. Cap top and barrel bottom are clean and with no damages.

The pen is fitted with a very pleasant stub nib which is flexible and fun to use.
