lead size is *not* the same as softness
By A Customer
My Waterman Hemisphere set is the best one I've ever had. Nowhere else have I found a ballpoint pen I like as much as this one. The weight is perfect, the mechanism smooth as silk. Plus the actual Waterman refills are the smoothest I've ever used, and they last a long time (I use medium point). No skips, blots, etc. As for the pencil lead, the size has nothing to do with the softness. Softness is variable, so for example, one scale of softest to hardest would be: 6B-5B-4B-3B-2B-B-HB-F-H-2H-3H-4H-5H-6H Pencil makers often use H to indicate a hard pencil, B for blackness (so a BB is very dark), and F to show it sharpens to a fine point. So you'll lots of combinations of these. As for the size of the lead on the Waterman Hemisphere, it's 0.5 mm. (Which you can look up online really easily.) It's a standard size, widely available. Happy writing!

By Robin Burns
To address the earlier review, the size of lead for the mechanical pencil does not determine it's hardness or durability. Leads come in both diameter size (larger size, larger diameter) and also a hard to soft range (number 2 is a medium soft pencil lead). Likewise, the type of refill placed in the pen will determine how well it writes. This is a gorgeous gift set that will last for years and great for gift giving!

By Sardic
Waterman is the premiere writing instruments of professionals and these do not disappoint. They are high quality and slim (which I prefer over the wider models) and the shipping was quick and they even came in a nice case. Make PERFECT gifts for executives.
