waterman 412 gothic

this is my waterman 412 gothic lec.  its missing the clip and the lower cover but it was the first really nice fountain pen i got.


 412 lec  this indicates that its a silver overlay eyedropper with a number 2 nib and that the part of the barrel in the photo should have a silver overlay that says the same.



 this is the patent date on the spoon feed.  from what i understand it is less common to see the patent date on the feed.  the nib on this was the first nib i really fell in love with.  it had some small cracks on the breather hole and after they were repaired the pen never flexed the same.
 this is the nib after repair looking gorgeous.



the top inscription is far to worn to read but i am almost positive that the bottom inscription says "family heirloom" in spanish.
