Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'd been thinking about acquiring this model for nearly a year. Obviously, my expectations for this model were extremely high. This pen actually meets and exceeds my expectations in every respect.
The pen is an excellent writer with a flexible enough nib to produce very nice letters, and even allows me to open up some of the loops with my rather small hand writing. Of course, using a fountain pen competently requires one to slow down and write with care and deliberation. The Carene is no exception. One must be attentive, but the result is generally better penmanship.
As with all of my other Waterman fountain pens, I employ the converter and use only Waterman's blue-black ink. The combination of ink and fine nib is excellent on most stationary, writing tablets, and even my generally too smooth journal pages.
The pen is aesthetically wonderful. I prefer the Waterman Charleston's lines more, but this pen is still gorgeous, and I think the amber shimmer is the best design. I've also seen other color schemes for this pen and I think they are all attractive. This is a marriage of beauty and excellent design that creates a fountain pen masterpiece.
The design incorporates a bit more weight than I had thought it would, but the pen is superbly balanced and a pleasure to write with for extended periods of time. In fact, I wish I could write this review using the Carene rather than this keyboard.
A word about the price and delivery of this product. The current price of about $192.00 including shipping is certainly better than other prices I have seen on line and in boutiques. The delivery time was also much faster than originally scheduled and that pleases me.
