What is the difference between a monogram and initials?

     A monogram consists of the three initials, and places the last initial in the middle and larger than the other 2 initials.  Initials are simply three initials, straight across, first-middle-last, with all the characters the same size.
     Which style you choose and which style is best is generally a matter of personal taste. I am able to engrave initials either way based on your instruction. Please get in touch if you have questions about initial engraving.

A Pocket Watch is Always a Welcome Gift

My father was an ardent pocket watch enthusiast who collected vintage timepieces his entire life. I spent hours examining those watches and speculating about the people who carried them. I imagined their excitement when first receiving the watch, the special occasions the watch was worn to and the ritual passing of the watch to a close friend or family member. I came to understand that each pocket watch is both a special treasure and silent witness to a lifetime of events.

I inherited my father's pocket watch collection and his enthusiasm for these amazing time keeping devices. The process of restoring some of the watches in that collection honed my watchmaking knowledge and skills. The creative juices flowed and I began to experiment with new modern pocket watches. My two sons started wearing those new reproduction models. Wherever they went, people asked about these new pocket watches and where to buy one. People were intrigued. They wanted a pocket watch too but didn't know where to find them.

With my store, PocketWatchPurveyor.com , I help people experience the pleasure of giving and receiving beautiful pocket watches. I source components from around the world to create and assemble a quality pocket watch collection worthy of my customers exacting standards and requirements. I check and recheck my watches at every stage of the creative process to ensure my customers receive their purchase in exactly the condition stated. I offer quartz and mechanical pocket watches (with matching chains) in various colors, sizes and styles. I also offer Groomsmen Gift Wedding Sets of two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight or more. I ship Monday to Friday so orders are received promptly.

As the proprietor of PocketWatchPurveyor.com, it is my privilege and pleasure to answer your questions and address your specific requirements, as you select the perfect pocket watch for yourself, special friends or family. Whether it be for a Birthday, Anniversary, Valentines Day, Father's Day, Graduation, Christmas or as a special token for members of your wedding party, a pocket watch is always a welcome and treasured gift.
