Does the cap snap on tight and secure? The cap for the pen I have now (Waterman Phileas) doesn't snap on tightly and has come off while in my pocket. I've ruined 2 shirts this way.

I also have this pen and have the same problem. The cap has become loose and has come off and ruined some of my shirts as well. Don't know if Waterman would do anything about it as they may say it is normal wear but mine has not had that much use and has had excellent care. Love writing with it, just afraid to carry it in a shirt pocket.

I want to purchase this Pen, however want to know what all things I need to purchase to refill this , is it only ink bottle or something else?

Here's the deal, boiled down: People vary in what they want. You can make this simple or more complicated. It us up to you. Some find it simpler to buy cartridges, perhaps in several ink colors; others like to buy a bottle or two of ink and use the supplied converter. I like the converter, myself. I rarely buy cartridges, or only buy one box of blue-black ink cartridges for travel. In the long run, bottled ink is cheaper, and offers far more selections. Over time you may come to acquire a few bottles of ink, perhaps a black, blue-black, and blue. Waterman makes nice inks, by the way, sold at very good prices. The brown is surprisingly nice for correspondence, even in business. Diamine is another sure bet with a very wide selection of inks to pick from. You can make this as simple or complicated as YOU wish. If you travel frequently, cartridges are very convenient to have. No need to worry then about refills! A lot depends on whether you are a fountain pen hobbyist, or just a fountain pen user. The former doesn't see numerous bottles of ink, pipettes, etc. as complications. The latter, wants to streamline. You will read a lot here posted by hobbyists, so beware -you sound more like a get-down-to-business user. Keep it simple. Buy the pen and a bottle of ink, and use the supplied converter. Or, buy several boxes of cartridges. Those are the real choices.

someone said it comes with converter ,but some said no . What is the truth?

The Expert does not come with a converter; however, unlike some other Waterman models, most standard international converters will fit in this pen.

Does this come with a converter?

It did not come with a converter. I like the cartridges.

Love this pen...!!!....Just go with it...!!!

Firstly I will thank and appreciate Mr. Anil Sehgal the seller for his professionalism and transperancy. First I had ordered Waterman expert with black body and gold trims. Mr. Anil called me and informed that it is not available and if I wish to continue he will send me the same pen with chrome body and gold trims which he shared the pics over whatsapp and he also mentioned that it is customizable. I was very delighted when I received this pen....Its really fabulous and light in hand and the fine nib wow....buttery smooth. Thanks alot.

Malfunctioned just after a month of purchase

The pen arrived alright but the plunger started leaking just after a month of use. After that the seller, Asquare Enterprise, is not cooperating to get it replaced since the pen has 3 years warranty. Instead they told me to talk to Luxor India directly. Nor the people at Luxor are responding to my calls and email requests to get it replaced. So, if the pen works fine, good, but if it malfunctions, you are on your own and your money is gone to waste.

Esta pluma fuente es para una escritura fina, solo que antes hay que acostumbrar a la mano con la inclinación correcta, para que la tinta pinte de manera homogenea, ya antes tuve una igual y es el mismo efecto, al principio cuesta un poco de trabajo "domarla", pero una vez que lo haces, la escritura es suave, firme y homogenea, excelente producto!!!

Très belle facture. Vraiment léger et très agréable à l'utilisation. Le prix était attractif (-40%) lorsque j'ai passé commande, ce qui le rendait abordable.

Very unhappy with the buy. The pen does not write well at all. Leaves big gaps. So much for the promise of smooth writing !
