Waterman (France) - Phileas

The following 2 pens, are what Waterman has named the "Phileas" model.

The designs on the 2 pens are very simple, and bear no relationship to Phileas Fogg.
The Pens are available as Fountain Pens, or as Roller Ball Pens.
They are connected to Jules Verne in Name only, and frankly, though a nice pen,
they are not worth the effort, from a Verne point of view!

Montblanc - Writers Edition 2003 - Jules Verne
Limited Edition Jules Verne.

"Produced in 2003 as a worldwide limited edition, the uniqueness of which is guaranteed by Montblanc." (Montblanc brochure)

For the year 2003, Monblanc produced a limited edition pen in their Writers Edition Series.
(released in August 2003). The Writers' Edition honours significant authors of world literature and focuses on their work.

"In honour of the inventor of Science Fiction - Jules Verne.
"All around stretches the blue expancse of the ocean, broken only by the successive waves of a guilloche pattern that laps around the barrel deep within the highly polished laquer..." This vivid description may sound like something out of Jules Verne, but it becomes reality in the Limited Edition dedicated to the famous writer. The antique diver's helmet engraved on the rhodium=plated 19-carat gold nib entices you to journey 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, while the platinum-plated trim and ivory-coloured star add the perfet finishing touches to this exquisite writing instrument. the cap also features a very personal link to the author in the shape of his facsimile signature." (Montblanc brochure)
