Comments:Author sbrebrown (3 months) Did I say it was $5? That must've been a mistake: this is not an expensive pen, but it's not a five dollar pen :-). Author nikolt2000 (3 months) 5 euro?? in the us it is 69 dollars Author sbrebrown (3 months) Yes, that's right. Author Joe Bannister (3 months) I'm sure this was the cheapest Waterman for a time, though I'm sure the "Graduate" replaced it as the cheapest Waterman pen, and that to me had serious issues that made this look like a Mont Blanc. Author sbrebrown (6 months) @PicturaSonus Yes, I have South Sea too, as well as Florida Blue and Havana Brown: all nice inks. Author PicturaSonus (6 months) Do you use Waterman ink, too? I have South Sea Blue from them, and it's pretty descent, although a little thin. Author sbrebrown (6 months) Exactly: if you have realistic expectations, it's not a bad pen. Author npl070 (6 months) I have the medium nib. It writes smoothly but the flow is not so good. With Akkerman Black #30 ink it takes a while to get the ink to the nib. It is a cheap pen, so the expectations should match that. Author sbrebrown (8 months) @dutchguywillem Hm, that's interesting - thanks for sharing this! Author dutchguywillem (8 months) the material is electroplated with gold. that means that a thin layer of gold is put on top of another metal by an electric current in a solution of gold ions. Author sbrebrown (10 months) I smoothed this nib and it's better now. Someone else suggested a video like this too, so I'll look into it. Author sbrebrown (11 months) Well, I did a bit of extra smoothing myself recently, and now it writes a LOT better. So I can completely understand how smooth your Apostrophe is. Incidentally, I think fountain pens make excellent gifts: they are truly personal! Author Álvaro García (11 months) Hey, sbrebrown. Thank you for this video, it helped me identify my Apostrophe ^^ It was my first fountain pen, a gift from my father, and I have always thought it is a great pen. The nib on mine (fine) is very smooth, it only scratched when I flipped it to write a finer line (and after a little work with a micromesh pad, it's also very smooth). I think you got a bad one, what a pity :/ Author sbrebrown (1 year) Yes, I have made many people addicts, I'm afraid. And just keep commenting :-). Author Roflcopter4b (1 year) True. It's actually pretty frightening. BTW, sorry for leaving comment after comment on so many random videos of yours. I've been binge watching them. Fountain pens are way more interesting than they should be. I think you've made me an addict. Author sbrebrown (1 year) The times, they are a-changin'. Crisis and all... Author Roflcopter4b (1 year) 35 Euros is only $45 CANADIAN? What has happened to the Euro? I always double it in my head to go from CAD to Euro. Author sbrebrown (1 year) I'll see if I can get a Kultur here somewhere! Author 001blackfox (1 year) I really do not know if Kultur is still being produced but one thing I am pretty sure that it's still being sold. ;) I'm quite happy user of orange WM Kultur. Author sbrebrown (1 year) I found one for € 34,95 (onlinekantoorshop (.) nl) :-)! But I still wouldn't pay that amount for this pen with a fine nib. Perhaps for one with a medium nib, but I haven't tried that... Author JustineBieberxoxo (1 year) Expect €54,95. (In NL, one of the cheapest online retailers.) Overpriced eh? Author sbrebrown (1 year) ;-). It is not as bad as it seems, but this is not my favourite Waterman nib... Author AloofObserver (1 year) Eek. I really don't like how fine that nib looks! Author sbrebrown (1 year) Glad you like the videos! I can't find the Kultur on Waterman's website anymore, so I have the feeling they may no longer be produced, but I'm not sure! Author shadesofrgey (1 year) Does Waterman still produce the Kultur? That model was even more inexpensive. Great videos BTW! Author sbrebrown (1 year) Thanks! Great, so which nib size did you get? Author sbrebrown (1 year) Thank you! Author Carrie Lai (1 year) well, waterman+fountain pen + just being cool, no wonder you got a cold. Take care. Again, professional review ~ Author sbrebrown (1 year) Someone else pointed out that Watermans take international cartridges, but Parkers do not. In any case, I use converters anyway ;-). Author arguan (1 year) I would almost bet it only takes waterman cartridges, something I eally don't like about waterman, the proprietary cartridges... Embed Video: | Search VideoTop VideosVideos
