Placemakers Custom Watches

Earlier this year Withers & Co. was approached by PlaceMakers National office as they were in need of a creative corporate gift.

The key points from what was a detailed brief were that they needed to recognize their client/prospects four-year achievement (end of apprenticeship), the corporate gift needed to be ‘special’, ‘different’ and have a ‘wow’ factor. Something that will be well received and appreciated by the recipient – needless to say a personalised mug or a promotional pen was out.

The Target Market was tradies with an average age of 26.

Starting with over a dozen possible items we whittled that down to three short listed items and the eventual winner was this contemporary watch.

Withers & Co. worked closely with Placemakers on the design of the watch everything from the strap, face, colour of the second’s hand to the presentation box, this watch was 100% bespoke and fitted everyone of the clients requirements.


This project had everything that we love about our industry – a client that loves merchandise as much as we do, it was bespoke, something that had never been done before all making the end result a happy client and a happy merchandise company.
