Description

Celebrating 140 years of Waterman craftsmanship, the Man 140 LE Black Wave is a modern reinterpretation of the legendary Man 100 fountain pen, first introduced in 1983 for the brand’s centennial. Limited to just 400 individually numbered pieces, this exclusive edition seamlessly blends heritage and contemporary design, making it an essential addition for collectors and writing enthusiasts.

The Man 140 LE Black Wave stands out with its monochromatic black finish, featuring a solid brass barrel encased in a precision-cut resin sleeve with an elegant circular wave pattern. This textured design enhances both the pen’s aesthetics and grip, offering a sophisticated yet comfortable writing experience. Classic elements, including the iconic cap clip and stylized “W” emblem, pay tribute to Waterman’s legacy, while the 18k gold nib, accented with a two-tone gold and ruthenium finish, ensures effortless ink flow and exceptional smoothness on paper.

Handcrafted in France, the Man 140 LE Black Wave is equipped with a cartridge/converter filling system, providing versatility for any writing preference. Designed for those who appreciate luxury and precision, this fountain pen is more than an instrument—it is a statement of refinement. Whether you are expanding your collection or seeking a prestigious gift, the Waterman Man 140 LE Black Wave embodies the art of fine writing, elevating every word into an expression of timeless sophistication.

Gravitas Vac 2

The construction of the Vac 2 is flawless. The textures of the materials and it's simple lines display an elegant beauty. The large steel nib delivers a pleasant writing experience and also provides a bit of flex.

Amazing Pen! Gravitas makes one of the best piston fillers out there. I dont keep the nib and normally use the pen for coustom flex nibs with Jowo #6 compatible nib units. So, i really cant speak on the nib. However, this pen is just built with high quality components. The weight, feel, and overall aesthetics are unmatched. You wont find better at this price point.

Platinum Sansui - Smooth Operator

I recently acquired the Platinum Maki-e Sansui pen in a Medium nib. The Pen Venture team was kind enough to carefully inspect and tune this pen before sending it on to me. Many thanks for that. It writes very smoothly and with a steady flow of ink. The Medium nib is my favorite nib configuration from the Platinum brand. The line width is nice and thin and always writes consistently right of the box. This lovely Maki-e pen was no different. I highly recommend it.

Gravitas #6 extra fine nib

The extra fine nib came tuned to perfection—a joy to write with. Thank you Emy!

FANTASTIC!

The VAC 2.0 is a great improvement to an already great pen (the original VAC Ultem). The weight and balance are spot on. The cap and the new threads engage without hesitation. No missed closures and the cap has a nice stop when threading back on. It posts securely without issue. Filling with the Kraken system is easy. I got a medium nib and it is smoooooooth. Mine is on par with my 823 medium nib The smoothness, wetness and bounce would make you think it's a gold nib. Line width is slightly narrower than the 823 medium. The pen feels solid and well built. I'm not worried about this one getting knocked around. Overall a great pen. Shipping from Pen-Venture to Colorado was five days! Great pen and service all around!
