Montegrapa is like Panerai: big and Italian
Omas is like JLC

I don't think you can match pen brands to watch brands all that well :twit:

Nahh, a casio digital is much better than that, Now, if you said one of those cheapy watches for sale on those mobile carts in shopping malls that would be more like it!

No, you did a great job.

But to finish it out I would thing the Waterman is like IWC.

How would you rate Pelikan? It seems to be a favorite in TRF.

Don't think Tudor = Pelikan.
Tudor is more like Montegrappa. Montblanc sold Montegrappa back to its original owners 2-3 years ago so at one stage Montegrappa was a sub-brand of Montblanc.
Pelikan is more like TAG, imho - uninspiring, dependable and fairly priced.
