Offered for sale are original Waterman C/F (Cartridge Filler) New Old Stock ink cartridges for Waterman C/F fountain pens. The ink port is still sealed but the ink has essentially evaporated - this is quite common for old ink cartridges. I refill ink cartridges all the time, many different brands, and have never had one leak. With each C/F ink cartridge purchased, I will include one ink refill kit. I don't think the needle in the refill kit is strong enough to break through the seal at the tip of the cartridge. I suggest putting the cartridge into your pen, then screw it together until the pen pierces the ink cartridge seal. Then remove the cartridge and use the refill kit to fill it with any fountain pen ink you desire.

Description Offered for sale is an original Waterman C/F (Cartridge Filler) New Old Stock ink cartridge and filling kit, for Waterman C/F and Concorde fountain pens. The ink port is still sealed in the cartridges, but the ink has essentially evaporated - this is quite common for old ink cartridges. The cartridge had been filled with Washable Blue.The C/F fountain pen was introduced in 1953, and was the first hugely popular Cartridge Filler fountain pen. With its drop-in loading and disposable cartridges, the C/F changed forever the way the world uses fountain pens. The C/F stayed in production for over 30 years. Waterman eventually stopped producing the cartridges, despite the longevity and popularity of the pen. The Concorde hit the market around 1971 and was quite successful. It came with a squeeze converter. They are hard to find, and will set you back at least $35.00. Some restorers suggest using the C/F cartridge instead. The converter is metal and slides into a plastic part of the section. Over time, the section can shrink ever so slightly and also become a bit brittle. Inserting the converter can crack the threads.I refill ink cartridges all the time, many different brands, and have never had one leak. With each C/F ink cartridge purchased, I will include one ink refill kit. This makes the refilling of the ink cartridges effortless. The cool part is, that you can fill the ink cartridges with any brand and color of fountain pen ink you desire.I don't think the flat tipped needle in the refill kit is strong enough to break through the seal at the tip of the cartridge. I suggest putting the cartridge into your pen, then screw it together until the sharp steel connector tube pierces the ink cartridge seal. Then remove the cartridge and use the refill kit to fill it with any fountain pen ink you desire. The refill kit will arrive partially assembled. So, it is simply a matter of pushing the needle onto the connector, and you are good to go. Insert the needle into a bottle of ink and press down on the tail piece a couple of times. Air will be expelled and ink will be drawn into the cartridge as it returns automatically to its extended length. BTW, the red spring section of the refill kit can be unscrewed from the clear tube for cleaning, if need be.I ship same or next business day. Pictures sell!
