Grooms Present

Hi all, I want to get my GTB a pocket watch with his family Crest on the outside, a picture of his late father on the inside and an inscription on the back. I know I'm asking a lot but can anyone recommend a shop or website to look through?xx

Oooh I got one with a picture in (a sunset picture of the place we got married... Somewhere really special to us) and took it somewhere to be engraved.... That might be the best option? X

My only advise would be to make sure the pocket watch has literally no pattern whatsoever on any of the sides you want engraved. Quite literally smooth everywhere. I made that mistake and picked a really pretty watch...turned out I couldn't get a single part of it engraved 🤦🏼‍♀️ ah well haha. Hope you manage to get what you want!!

What a lovely idea. I got my partner one from ebay its circa 1920 as we fot married in 2020. My dad helped as he loves pocketwatches and collects them. Can geg a good deal on ebay if know what you want and looking for. Happy shopping x
