I managed the backroom management consulting conference when Gillette bought Parker Pen some 30 years ago. Held at a castle turned event retreat in the English countryside which was beautiful. The Parker Pen people hated Gillette (Papermate) and the acquisition was going very poorly.
Anyway, we got to use a variety of Parker's as well as high end competitors as part of the whole event. Fine writing instruments are a waste on me as I write with my right hand holding the pen like it's my left. I appreciate the craftsmanship and elegance of a nice pen but I'm better left with Sharpies. Case in point, my signature now is just an up and down swoosh.
Ball point, favorite pen is a Zebra Z Grip. Gel, Pilot.
Semi off topic: I always think it's funny old people carefully writing their signature on self service checkout screens at the supermarket.
