Looks like naybe glue--see the blob above the clip? Plating is horrible and coming off in spots. The nib, if there was a better picture of it, might be it's redeeming factor.
It should be sterling, not plated. Im getting a feeling the overlay may not be Waterman, seeing that it looks filled. The seller stated the overlay says Waterman.

Could be epoxy...or solder flux that never got cleaned off. Yuck. That's blotchy tarnished sterling, not flaky plating.

Schrödinger's cat walks into a bar. And doesn't.
