I'm a daily user too.

Two years ago I treated myself to a Pilot retractable pen after I dropped
my Waterman
while shopping and bent the nib about 45 degrees up, because the cap
retaining
mechanism was shot.  My pen store guy said it's not fixable.  But I was
able to manipulate
 the nib back so that I can still use it at my desk where it doesn't matter
if the cap is loose.
