In 1993 Waterman introduced the Edson model, whose name was meant to celebrate Waterman's founder: L. Edson Waterman.

The pen was extremely innovative and modern, having a translucent sapphire barrel, an inlay nib and a modernist satin-finished gold filled cap. In 1994 the model was offered in green too and, finally, the following year, red was added to the line. Each model is fitted with a converter of the same color as the barrel of the pen.

In the 2000s more versions of the Edson were added, including a full metal one.

The blue sapphire represents a milestone and it is definitely one of the most significant and desirable Waterman models of the 1990s, followed by the green and the red versions which are rarer and more difficult to find.

This Waterman Edson in Emerald green has its original green converter and appears to be unused. It has its original box which is externally damaged like all the boxes of this series (it is not included in the pictures). The cap shows a tiny damage which is not a ding but a spot where the gold coating seems to have been chipped, apparently by a spike. The damage is really tiny and almost unnoticeable.

The pen is priced accordingly.

Nib grade is F.
