There's engraving, from simple initials to elaborate design.

Or enameling, which can be quite unique as virtually any image, that you can supply, can be reproduced.

I am suffering some serious inertia on this project.
That enamel looks stunning, especially with the de Lempicka painting!:eusa_clap I´d jump for that one in a heartbeat.
My own every day watch (and, sadly, the only one I own) is just an old Puma, which my father gave to me years ago. He´d broken the glass on it twice at work, so he thought it would be better to pass it along to me and it´s served me well since then. The date function stopped working and I´ve had the steel band replaced twice, but I still like it, nonetheless.
If I had the money though, I´d probably get me a nice vintage looking pocket watch (anyone know of a model that doesn´t break the bank?) or something along the lines of the Reverso pictured above. In any case I´d prefer simplicity and classic looks over something flashy or too bulky, because unfortunately, though I´ve got fairly big hands, in comparison I do have the wrists of a twelve year old girl.
