What is the 5 1/4" Black Brass Mechanical Pencil?
Catalogued as PS7160, this desk clock sits in the part of the range that gets re-ordered rather than tried once. It measures 5 1/4". This is the black colorway.
Brass is the traditional engraving metal: dense, warm-toned and long-lived.
A clock is looked at deliberately, several times a day, for years. Rotary or laser engraving cuts a crisp permanent line that can be color-filled. The two together are why this item re-orders.
At this price you are buying a reaction rather than an impression. That only works if the list is short enough for the gesture to feel deliberate. Concretely: $21.00 each at 1-11, $13.02 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 2 in x 2 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Best for
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Color
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
Rotary Engraving
A rotating cutter physically carves the surface. A deep V-cut line with genuine dimension.
Best for
Brass and aluminum plates, especially with color fill.
Color
Substrate color or color-filled.
Color Fill
Engraved or carved recesses are filled with pigment. A permanent engraved mark that reads in brand color rather than substrate color.
Best for
Metal and crystal where the logo must be recognisably on-brand.
Color
Matched to Pantone where the recess allows.
Artwork requirements
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
Production schedule

|---|---|

| Rush run | quoted per job once the proof is signed off, with the date confirmed in writing |

Common uses
Retirement giftsA natural fit for retirement gifts, which is one of the settings this desk clock was specified for.
Long-service awardsSpecified regularly for long-service awards. The imprint area at 2 in x 2 in is sized for exactly that job.
Executive giftingExecutive gifting is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
Safety and quality milestonesMarking a record that took every person on the floor to achieve, with something they can point at.
Employee milestonesAnniversaries, promotions and retirements: the moments where a personalized object does what an email cannot.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
1
Employee Recognition & Service Awards
Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. The presentation matters as much as the piece. An award handed over in a hallway is worth a fraction of the same award presented in front of the team, which means the object should be specified for the moment it will be photographed in, not the shelf it ends on. A clock is looked at deliberately, several times a day, for years. $21.00 before breaks puts this above hand-out territory. Use it that way.
2
Financial Services, Insurance & Legal
Professional services sell trust, and the gift has to look like the invoice. The gift is often opened in front of colleagues, so it is judged as a signal about the relationship rather than as an object. Understatement is the safe default, and a name engraved properly does more than any material upgrade. Rotary or laser engraving cuts a crisp permanent line that can be color-filled. Reserve this for the shortlist and the response changes noticeably.
3
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Challenge coins, unit recognition, retirement and commendation pieces all carry established conventions. Sourcing compliance and documented lead times usually matter as much as the item itself. The desk clock format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Personalise it. At this tier a name is what makes it land.
4
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. Timing beats budget in this segment. The same gift sent a week after a renewal lands completely differently from one sent in December with four hundred others, because in January it is the only thing on the desk. Buy for the calendar you control rather than the one everybody shares. Too good to scatter. Pick the recipients deliberately.

What do buyers ask about PS7160?
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
How is this decorated?
Laser Engraving is the primary method on PS7160. A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved. We can also run Rotary Engraving and Color Fill on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on PS7160 is 2 in x 2 in.
Can I order more later and have them match?
Re-orders reproduce rather than reinterpret. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. On natural materials the base itself can shift a little between batches, so tell us if an exact match matters. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on PS7160 runs from $21.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $13.02 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes. Give us the in-hand date and checkout tells you immediately whether standard production makes it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on PS7160 is 2 in x 2 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. PS7160 sells from a single unit at $21.00, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
What is the minimum order for PS7160?
PS7160 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on PS7160 runs from $21.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $13.02 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on PS7160 is 2 in x 2 in.
