Waterman Expert II Dune Red

This is a made in France pen bought at Mustafa. Reason why I bought it is due to the deep red body colour combined with black and gold. It has a nice polished body. The nib is medium size. For writing, it is not as smooth as the Montblanc 146 but for the price of the pen, the smoothness is deem reasonable. The length is similar to the 146 and instead of a turn capping mechanism, Waterman chooses to use a push and click closing. The pen uses a converter method of extracting ink. The pen uses Pelikan 4001 Royal Blue ink. It is lighter than my liking. Perhaps I should choose a darker blue ink. But Pelikan 4001 ink is really value for money.
