You are searching for that perfect gift for a special person (lover, best friend, mother, father, brother, sister etc.). So how about getting them a custom made and custom engraved bracelet?
We are making all the Break Time nautical-inspired bracelets in our atelier in Split, Croatia, and we have great options for you to choose from, depending on who you are buying it for. If you are not able to measure the wrist of the person you are getting the bracelet for, then we suggest you choose one of our universal size bracelets. If you can estimate or measure the wrist size (see our Size Guide for reference), then you can also choose a bracelet with shackle.
Also, to help you make the selection, we have organised our bracelets in three categories, as below:
Once you chose the bracelet, now comes the question: what should I engrave on it? Well, read more about our engraving options and let us give you some suggestions to spark up your inspiration.
We have compiled below a list of great engravings for your life partner, parent, daughter/son, sister/brother and - of course - for yourself.
Of course, you can choose to engrave a name or a date, or coordinates of a place that have a special meaning, any emoji you want etc.
We also can engrave a design that you are drawing yourself - message us to find out what we need from you in terms of drawing style, file format etc.
Depending on who you buy the bracelet for, here are some specific engraving ideas that you might find useful.
ENGRAVING IDEAS FOR YOUR PARTNER
If you are getting matching bracelets for you and your girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband/life partner, one (always good!) idea is to engrave your initials...with a heart ❤ or the infinity sign ∞ between them...or any other emoji or variation that fits your relationship best.
There can be so many more options: the day you met, the day you first kissed, the day you got engaged, the date you got married, the coordinates of the place you first met.
If you want to express how much they mean to you, either for a special occasion like Valentine or anniversary or for no other reason than you love them, here are some suggestions:
