The Waterman Expert Ballpoint Pen in Black Lacquer with Gold Trim makes a striking first impression.
Not just because it looks like a classic executive accessory. Its deep, glossy black lacquer finish paired with gleaming 23-karat gold accents gives it a level of sophistication that stands out whether it is tucked into a briefcase or resting beside a journal.
This is not a casual gel pen but a writing instrument designed with a certain gravitas in mind, one that reflects a professional aesthetic without feeling overly flashy.
Crafted in France and presented in a premium Waterman gift box, it feels more like a keepsake than a disposable office supply.
In terms of writing performance, the ballpoint tip consistently delivers clean and quick-drying lines that make the pen suitable for everyday tasks.
From professional correspondence to personal notes. Users often highlight that the ink flows smoothly without skipping, lending confidence whether you are signing checks or jotting reminders.
While it is not the sort of instrument you necessarily choose for calligraphy or expressive ink art, its dependable performance for standard writing is precisely what many buyers are seeking. Several reviewers even mention that the writing experience matches the pen’s refined outward look, reinforcing the overall sense of quality that Waterman aims to deliver.
