Waterman Expert II Black Gold Trim 3-Piece Pen Set

This is a premium three-piece writing instrument set from Waterman Paris, specifically the Expert II model series. The set includes a fountain pen, a rollerball pen, and a twist-action mechanical pencil or ballpoint pen. Each instrument features a classic jet-black lacquer finish over a brass substrate, accented with 23k gold-plated trim. The design is characterized by its cigar-shaped profile and the signature Waterman open-slotted clip. The pens feature wide, double-banded center rings with 'WATERMAN PARIS' and 'FRANCE' engravings. The fountain pen features a stainless steel nib with gold plating to match the trim. This specific design and packaging suggest a late 1990s to early 2000s manufacturing period. The craftsmanship is high, indicative of Waterman's 'Expert' line designed for business professionals. The items are presented in a white satin-lined blue hardshell presentation case with the gold-stamped 'WATERMAN PARIS' logo and the 'W' emblem. Overall, the condition appears excellent with no visible lacquer chips or plating loss; the items appear to have been kept as a collector's set within their original case, showing high-quality preservation of the finish and metallic luster.
