What to Look For

Often confused with Phileas but key differences: no brass liner, plain steel nib (no two-tone), no cigar band, often transparent section. Extremely diverse color range including neon transparent and frosted variants. Lara Croft Tomb Raider special edition exists.

Waterman’s most colorful pen — produced in an astonishing range of finishes including neon transparent, frosted, metallic, and marble variants.1

Design

Very similar to the Phileas but with key differences: no brass liner, plain steel nib (or single-tone gold), no cigar band, and often a transparent section.1 The lack of brass insert makes it lighter and cheaper.
