Waterman Graduate Ballpoint Pens

Engraved Pens

When it comes to recognising your employees' hard work and accomplishments in their careers, a luxury pen like our Waterman Graduate Pen goes a long way. Not only does it signify success and professionalism, but it also reflects the value you place on their contributions. What's more, our Graduate pen isn't just for grand gestures – you can order as few as 10 pens, making it a versatile option for any occasion or team size.

We'll laser engrave your logo or message onto the pen, making it pop with a cool dark grey/brown colour. Your branding will stand out in style.

Top tip:

1. Consider the scale – due to the small size of the printable area do not use artwork with fine details or small text as the print will flood. Pens are best suited to strong, bold, fonts and simplified graphics.

2. Please ensure that only vector graphics are uploaded for this product for the best print quality. Supplying rasterised artwork will result in reduced print clarity, but your file will be printed and you may not receive the expected or desired effect.

Technical Specification for Engraved Pens

Engraved Pens

Laser engraving uses a focused laser beam to burn or etch your design directly onto the surface of a product. Instead of adding ink or colour, it creates a precise, permanent mark by removing the top layer of material. This method is perfect for detailed logos or text and is commonly used on metal, wood, glass, and coated items. The result is a clean, high-contrast finish that won’t fade or wear over time. 

Print Method: Laser Engraving  

• Print Area Size: W 4cm x H 0.6cm 

• Colours: Engraved – One Colour  

• Graphics: Vector Format with a 100%K spot colour named “Engraving.” 

• File Format: PDF
