After the ape at my local tyre fitting place chipped the rim, I'm looking for a dark grey touch-up pen. Anyone here found one close enough?

Not sure how it is in the UK but here in the US with problems like these, I go to an automotive paint store and have them match me the color I need. Maybe a local body shop can help you as well... I you're able to get help that way, have the store make you a small batch of color and make sure it's a single stage paint that needs to be catalyzed for durability. You'll have to make a few passes in order to get the desired build up. Good luck

I went thru every touch-up pen at my local AutoZone, and found a really close match in: Honda Graphite Pearl - Honda Code is NH658P. Duplicolor code HA 00986
Its really close match to the Brembo 3-spoke aluminum wheel on my 2008 1100. I'm assuming (Pete will know) that all the aluminum wheels are the same ??
