Where can I order customized watches/clocks in bulk?

I would like to order a bunch of watches/clocks with custom faces. The customization itself is extremely simple.

Where can I order a large number of such watches/clocks? How much do they cost in bulk, how long does it take to ship? Cheapest shipping to the States preferred.

There are tons of companies that specialize in Corporate Promotional Items -- pens, umbrellas and other crap with corporate logos on them. Is that the kind of customization you need?

Watches are extremely common since they're very common employee gifts. The price range'll vary from a few dollars each for cheap items to a hundred dollars each or more for nicer watches, so it'll vary dramatically depending on what you want and how many you need.

There are literally thousands of companies that do this and googling 'promotional watches' will turn up many of them.

My only experience is with Corporate Express, which now seems to be part of Staples, and doesn't seem to offer watches anymore, so I can't offer a specific recommendation, but this is a whole industry unto itself.

There are also thousands of options on alibaba.com and other wholesale trading sites for buying cheap goods directly from Chinese and other manufacturers.

Response by poster: jacquilynne, yes i mean corporate promotional items and such. however i want extremely minimal watches and clocks, with no logos or manufacturer's names on them.

something like this: http://www.techchee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/4-bit-binary-watch.jpg

but even simpler, if possible.

what i need customized is the numbers of the hours, nothing else.

watches *&* clocks.

I'd contact ePromos.com or 4Imprint.com and discuss your needs with one of their people to see how far their customization can go. I've worked with both companies in the past. I think ePromos went a bit above and beyond with helping me get just what I needed. They may not be able to help you but they are worth a shot.
