Waterman Pens

For my birthday, my wife bought me a fine new writing instrument from Waterman. The Expert II (mine is in the copper finish, not champagne as shown) has a gold-plated nib that stands up to my somewhat firm hand on the paper. You can buy a converter to refill from an inkwell; I'm not quite twee enough to go that route yet, so I got a box of cartridges.

You can get the Expert II at Levenger, and probably Ashford.com, but we got a sweet deal at ArtLite, a local office-supplies store with a lousy website but great stuff. Their selection of fine pens and leather goods is great, but I still want to visit Levenger's retail outlet one day.
