Common Engraving Questions Answered
When will my engraved item be ready?
Typical turnaround is 3-5 business days, balancing speed with quality craftsmanship. Simple single-line engravings on readily accessible surfaces may be ready in 1-2 days, while intricate designs, watch case backs requiring disassembly, or batch corporate orders use the full timeframe. Reach out about expedited service if you're working with a tight deadline - we'll do our best to help.
Do you engrave items I didn't purchase from your store?
Absolutely! We welcome and encourage outside items for engraving. Whether it's a treasured family heirloom, an online purchase, a gift from elsewhere, or vintage jewelry passed down through generations, we're equipped and experienced to personalize it professionally. In fact, many customers specifically seek us out because our jewelry expertise allows us to safely work with valuable pieces that other shops won't accept. Bring us anything that needs personalization - if it can be engraved, we can handle it.
Can I choose my engraving font?
We offer an extensive selection of fonts including classic serif styles, modern sans-serif lettering, elegant cursive scripts, traditional block text, and decorative specialty fonts. When you visit our Coronado Center showroom, we'll show you font samples and help you select styles that complement your item and match your vision. We can also match specific fonts you provide or recreate particular typefaces when you have something specific in mind. Letter size and style selection considers both aesthetics and practicality - some fonts are more legible at small sizes, while others shine in larger applications.
Is engraving permanent? Can it be removed or corrected?
Engraving creates permanent marks that cannot simply be removed, making accuracy critical. We prevent mistakes through multiple verification steps: you provide text in writing, we confirm every detail verbally, you review a proof or mockup when appropriate, and we verify once more before engraving. This systematic approach has resulted in an excellent accuracy record over our years serving Albuquerque. Should the extremely unlikely happen and we make an error, we'll take responsibility and work toward a fair resolution.
What's the maximum engraving length?
Text capacity depends on your item's size, the surface area available, and your preferred letter size. Generally, wedding bands accommodate 15-30 characters comfortably (about 2-3 short copyright or initials plus a date), watch case backs handle 30-50 characters (2-3 lines of text), and larger items like flasks or plaques can fit considerably more. We'll assess your specific item during consultation and recommend appropriate text length for optimal legibility and appearance. Remember, sometimes less is more - concise, meaningful text often creates more elegant results than cramming maximum characters into available space.
