Commissions

A Watch Can Tell Your Story

There are many reasons to commission a custom watch. Watches are gifts to commemorate special occasions such as graduations, birthdays, weddings, retirements and other significant milestones in life; they are keepsakes that are passed down through the generations, and Celeste Watches, with their more meaningful dials, hold special meaning for the wearer and/or are admired as art pieces. 

If you are interested in having a custom and completely unique watch designed and produced especially for you, don’t hesitate to get in touch. Watches can be Swiss automatic or quartz.

When designing something special for you, Celeste’s preference is to start out by sitting down and talking about what you want. Being customized for you, the best results come from getting to know you and understanding your ideas and motivations. She can also make custom watches from ideas, logos, clip art, photographs, illustrations, and sketches. 

After she understands what you want, and you both agree on the scope of the project, she will provide a quote and requires a 50% deposit to get started. Design time, cut time, materials, type of watch, and inlay time are all factors in the overall price. The more complex, the longer the process, and the higher the price. Completion usually takes from two weeks to two months, depending on the complexity and her calendar.
