Is Pilot Still Producing Dunhill Pens And/or The Nibs? If Not, Who Makes Dunhills Now?

I have a couple of AD 2000 Dunhills, which IMO are wonderful pens, and was wondering if they are made by Pilot. In the past, Pilot produced the Dunhill Namikis (are they still being produced?) and I was told that they also did other Dunhills. Is this true? Maybe they only make their nibs . . .

Would appreciate your input.

AFAIK, since the late 80's Dunhill has been owned by Richemont SA, which also owns MB and Cartier (among others) . While Pilot might have made the pens for Dunhill previous to its acquisition, my guess is that MB is probably now responsible for producing Dunhill's pens.

 

However, I'd be happy to be proven wrong...

 

EDIT: small corrections to spelling

The AD2000's section, nib, feed and converter(con70) are from Pilot. 100% sure. Dont know who made the rest of the pen...

I have a carbon fibre ad2000 rollerball, and it says it is swiss made. Could it be that Pilot made the nibs and shipped them to Carandache?
