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.
"Wonderful experience! This review is long overdue. I asked Celeste to design a custom watch for an anniversary gift and she made the perfect watch. She kept in communication for the entire process, gave me options and brought to life what I was imagining. She takes her work extremely seriously; when I went to pick up the final product, she showed me a design that she had done earlier but she said she wasn't pleased with it so she tweaked the design and made a beautiful product. I highly recommend Celeste Watch Company." - Sophie Murray

"Celeste is truly an artist. I had an idea of what i wanted, we chatted about ideas and colors, and she created for me a pirate, and Bigfoot watch. The are so cool, they will be conversation starters when someone asks about the watch. If you want a masterpiece, or artwork on your wrist, you will be very happy. I have other ideas for the future. Thanks Celeste.... Terry"

“Oh my goodness! This watch I commissioned you to make for my husband is simply priceless. I was moved by what you created. I am forever finding new and endless beauty in the Union Pacific 4014 Big Boy train watch face. The colors seem to forever change, and I am amazed by the smallest to largest details you somehow created. Thank you!” ~ Patty Gonzales

I love that I am the proud owner of a one-of-a-kind, unique and elegant timepiece that you’ve designed with me in mind. I know that no one else could’ve done this for me. It’s very special.” ~ Marvin Revoal
