I got a Hemisphere M-nib and I didn't like to run the cartridge in it so I wanted a converter naturally.
It fills up easily from the ink bottle (Iroshizuku Take-Sumi, a beautiful ink). It fits well into the Hemisphere and I haven't experienced leakage on the converter or pen.
The waterman converter pictured is the previous model converter. I ordered it because I was looking for that specific converter. I received a current model converter. The difference is the current model has a hard rubber end instead of the metal threaded end.
The convertor fits both my Carène and La Man and works as I expect it to. The converter has a good seal around the plunger. The plunger is a twist model.
The plunger motion is stiff (I expect it to loosen with use). The fit is tight. This is my second modern waterman converter. I have read some have experienced cracks but I never have and dont expect to woth this one either
Prima product. Voor een converter best prijzig, maar over het algemeen doe ik er jaren mee. En je merkt dat het per merk vulpen soms toch net even verschilt of je een converter van het eigen merk gebruikt of van een ander merk.
The customer service is fantastic. I ordered a couple of these a few weeks ago and quickly received an email informing me that they did not have the requested quantity in stock,, but that they had ordered them and would send them to me as soon as possible. Despite having to order the requested quantity from the supplier, the converters were sent to me quickly and arrived in perfect condition.
A simple and reliable Converter for Waterman Fountain Pens, made from Plastic and Metal.
It is possible to take the Metal part off for cleaning and service purposes.
For example when Ink or Water get somehow behind the Pistons Head.
A nice and handy piece, allowing to use Waterman Fountain Pens with your Ink of choice.
Probleemloos te installeren en gemakkelijk in gebruik. De hoeveelheid inkt die in de converter kan is kleiner dan in een cartridge, maar daar staat tegenover dat je 'm heel gemakkelijk even kunt "optoppen" zodat je feitelijk nooit met een lege pen hoeft te zitten. Prijs is niet heel voordelig, maar je bent al goedkoper uit wanneer je drie doosjes cartridges hebt weggeschreven.
