Personalised engraving on a Tissot watch

The project

The brief was to add a phrase with personal meaning to its owner’s Tissot watch. Archicercle laser-engraved the caseback, respecting the watch’s circular shape and existing design.

The intervention focused on the back of an existing watch. The phrase was arranged around the circular caseback, with the aim of integrating the message into the watch rather than treating it as a separate addition.

To carry out the engraving, we adjusted the laser’s power, speed and direction. These settings formed part of the personalisation work, which centred on adding the text to the caseback surface.

The result was a personal inscription on the reverse of the watch. Archicercle’s contribution was to engrave that message on the existing object, rather than to design or manufacture the watch.
