Spot Color
We are set up to print our custom dials in-house specializing in spot color applications. Spot color is one, two or three non-overlapping colors. Samples of one (1) color here. A new window will open. Close it to continue.
A minimum order is negotiable, usually 20 pieces of one style, either Gent’s or Lady’s, on in-stock inventory. A minimum order of 100 pieces is required if the timepiece style that is chosen is not in inventory, or if the dial must use a 4 color silk screen process. If you are using the in-stock case and bracelets but require a 4 process color dial, a minimum order of 100 dials is still required, but we will assemble only 20 pieces and give you the remaining dials for future assembly. We cannot guarantee that we will have a suitable case (size or style) in stock for future assembly of pre-printed dials.
The dials that we have now in stock include: Gent’s 27mm round champagne, 27mm champagne with a brilliant at 12, white 27mm round, 27mm white with a brilliant at 12, black 27mm round, 27mm black with a brilliant at 12. Lady’s 19mm round champagne, 19mm champagne with a brilliant at 12, white 19mm round, 19mm white with a brilliant at 12, black 19mm round, 19mm black with a brilliant at 12.

Watch Cases
We chose the most popular and versatile matching Gent’s and Lady’s brass case (gold color) for standard inventory. The case back, stainless steel, is hypo allergenic. The case style will allow full use of the dial as the time indexes (Roman) are located on the bezel of the case and are not required to be printed on the dial. The crystal is scratch resistant mineral glass. Click here for an example. This example shows a three (3) color dial hand finished.
Straps and Bracelets
The standard price includes genuine leather straps. Stainless steel gold plated bracelets are available for an additional charge. Sizing is required for the stainless steel bracelets.
Colors
We use the Pantone Color Matching System, a printing industry-wide standard for spot colors. If you have a specific Pantone color that is specified for your company logos or other printing requirements we can match it.
One Year Limited Warranty
CSCE Limited states that all custom watches are warranted to the original purchaser to be free from defects in both material and workmanship under normal use for one year beginning at the date of purchase. Defective product will be repaired or replaced, at CSCE Limited’s option, within a reasonable time free of charge, except shipping and handling. The original purchaser will send the timepiece directly to CSCE Limited not involving the retailer if applicable. This warranty does not cover the crown, crystal, battery, leather strap, or the plating on the case and strap. If the product is returned for repair for a problem not covered under this warranty, a charge may apply. The customer will be advised if there is a charge involved. This warranty does not apply if the product has been misused, abused or altered. The warranty is void if the watchcase has been opened or otherwise tampered.
CSCE Limited reserves the right to substitute models and movements with equivalent or better quality products without prior notice.
Artwork
Vector artwork is the best to provide in the PC format. We do not use Macintosh hardware or software. Vector formats include CDR (Corel), WMF (Windows Metafile), CGM (Computer Graphic Metafile) AI (Adobe Illustrator), PS (Postscript), EPS (Encapsulated postscript), and many other file types. If the file you are sending is not listed here, please check with us to make sure that we can open the file.
If you are e-mailing your artwork, send it as an attachment to your e-mail and please send only the specific piece of artwork that you wish us to use.
Pictures or Bitmaps
We can work from picture files (bitmaps) like JPG, TIF, PNG, CPT, PSD, and GIF file types BUT usually the quality of the image is too low, too small or too large to print or to alter. If the only image of the artwork you own is a bitmap, it should be at least 300 dpi. If you only have a reflective copy (print) of the artwork, we will have to scan the image and there are additional charges that apply at $35.00 per hour. Also if it is necessary for us to convert bitmaps to vector artwork the charge is $35.00 per hour. A quotation will be provided in these instances because some conversions are quite time consuming. Usually we can provide the service in an hour if the design is simple.
If you do not have any artwork at all, we can provide original designs from simple logos to full scale corporate identity programs. For this type of service we will provide an individual quotation based on an initial free consultation.
Thank you for your interest.
