We work with sterling silver, gold, platinum, and stainless steel, ensuring clean, legible engraving that stands the test of time.
Keepsake Pieces - Lockets and memorial jewelry hold special significance, often containing photos or mementos of loved ones. We provide delicate engraving on these small, precious surfaces - adding names, dates, or brief meaningful phrases that honor cherished memories. Our jewelers use specialized techniques for ultra-fine engraving that preserves the beauty and integrity of vintage and heirloom pieces.
Watch Engraving by Expert Watchmakers
As certified watch repair technicians with extensive horological training, we're uniquely qualified to engrave timepieces safely and properly. Many engraving shops won't touch watches because they lack the expertise to open cases, engrave professionally, and reseal watches while maintaining water resistance and factory specifications. At Fast Fix, watch engraving is one of our specialties.
Caseback Personalization - Create lasting memories with watch back engraving for life's significant moments. Popular inscriptions include "30 Years of Service," dates marking achievements, or personal messages from loved ones. Our watchmakers open cases using proper tools, execute flawless engraving, replace gaskets as needed, and ensure water resistance is maintained.
High-End Timepiece Engraving - Luxury watches require expert-level care and precision. Whether you own a Rolex Datejust, an Omega Speedmaster, or another prestigious timepiece, our certified watchmakers employ specialized engraving techniques designed specifically for high-end watches. We understand these watches represent significant investments, and we treat them accordingly with museum-quality care and attention.

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.

What fonts and lettering styles are available?

Our collection ranges from traditional engraving styles perfect for formal recognition items to contemporary fonts ideal for modern jewelry designs. We help you select appropriate fonts based on your item type, available space, and desired aesthetic. For example, delicate script works beautifully on wedding bands, while bold block letters ensure trophy plate readability. We can also create custom lettering or monograms for truly unique personalization.
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.
Is there a character limit for engraving?
The amount of text possible varies significantly based on item size, surface shape, and desired letter size for readability. Small jewelry pieces like rings work best with brief inscriptions - initials, short dates, or 2-3 word phrases. Medium items including watch backs and pendants accommodate longer messages of several copyright. Large surfaces like trophy plates or flasks can include substantial text, multiple lines, or even paragraphs. During your visit, we'll examine your item and help you craft text that fits beautifully while remaining easily readable.
