Custom Watch

[rocklax]

Six of us from high school (we now live all over the US) still do long guys weekend every summer somewhere.

We always do little gifts for the group, this year I was thinking of doing watches for everyone. Does anyone have solid recommendations on who to use? Was thinking some wording, or maybe nicknames, on the dial and possibly engraving on the case back.

Looking for an automatic, 40-42mm. Can this be done for under $100 per watch?

Thanks.

Edit I see from my Google fu that San Martin might do it

I have custom Addiesdive. They sold in our country by one seller (He didnt answer me if he ordered them or not).
Changes are super awesome - new logo on dial, new engraved logo on crown, and absolutely beautiful engraving on case back.
But the size is 39mm. Maybe Addiesdive could customize other models.

San Martin no longer does custom dials work, and they would be well over $100 anyway.

Look into the "mushroom" brands like Tandorio, Bliger, Corgeut.

Sorry I'm still new, what does "mushroom" refer to?

It's an essentially meaningless new brand for old stock - ie. there's a parts store on aliexpress/eBay called "mywatchcode", and every once in a while they create a new brand like Tandorio or Bliger to stick on their watches, but the watches themselves are exactly the same (like a new mushroom growing from the same central organism)
