The Waldmann Concorde PVD Fountain Pen pairs German silversmithing with a cool, modern finish. Its sleek, finely balanced profile is rendered in sterling silver and protected by a resilient PVD coating that brings a refined silver-grey tone and a subtle, technical sheen. The result is a writing instrument that feels substantial in hand, yet understated and contemporary on the desk.
Craftsmanship & Design
Waldmann works in 925 sterling silver for its tactile weight, longevity, and the way it develops character over time. Here, a physical vapor deposition finish adds a hardwearing surface layer that resists everyday wear while preserving crisp lines and a clean, architectural silhouette. Tolerances are tight, fit and finish are precise, and the transitions between materials read as deliberate rather than decorative. It is a design that favors clarity and function, with the precious metal foundation quietly doing the heavy lifting.
Writing Experience
The Concorde delivers a smooth, consistent line with a well-controlled flow that suits daily notes and longer sessions. It is available with a stainless steel nib or an optional 18k gold nib, each tuned for dependable performance across a range of paper types. Choose from extra fine, fine, medium, or broad to match your handwriting and ink preferences. A cartridge/converter filling system offers flexibility: load standard international cartridges for convenience or pair a converter with bottled ink for greater variety.
Brand Heritage
Founded in 1918 in Pforzheim, Germany, Waldmann has specialized in sterling silver writing instruments for more than a century. The brand’s work reflects the region’s jewelry and metalworking tradition, combining precious metal craft with reliable, modern writing mechanics. The Concorde PVD Fountain Pen continues that lineage with materials and finishing chosen for daily use and long-term enjoyment.

Like other reviewers I was unimpressed with this pen's appearance. Shame they changed to the black accents, previous was all silver. Why is there no sterling marking on barrel or cap? Hallmarking is important! I let it sit uninked thinking "maybe it'll grow on me." It didn't; but reviews said it was an excellent writer. At this price point it should be. It lays down a nice fine line (F nib) and there are no hard starts, nib is smooth but not particularly impressive. Doubt it will be in my rotation, just not aesthetically pleasing. I received it in a subscription box. Frankly wish I'd returned it.
I received this pen in my subscription box and at first was nonplussed. I had never heard of Waldmann. I decided to give it a shot however because the pens in my boxes have all been wonderful writers. I discovered upon use that this pen is delightful. I have small to average size hands for a woman and this pen is slim and elegant. It fits well in my hand and feels light and easy. The nib writes nicely smooth and consistently. The silver design is classic and ageless.
Additionally, it has a place for engraving and would make a beautiful graduation or achievement gift.
I received this in my monthly box and was SO disappointed as it just doesn't do it for me aesthetically.... BUT it has become one of my favourite pens because it writes like a dream and is so comfortable to hold. Just amazing. It glides across the paper. I now find myself reaching for this pen before some of my other favourites. It's also one of my thinnest pens, which means I can put it in a pen loop in my planner. And the way it looks has grown on me!
