Where to buy good quality stickers of watch manufacturer logos?

I want to put stickers on my watch bench. Some of my friends in the wood working field trade stickers and put them in their shop. I thought it would be cool to do the same. But, I don't know any other watchmakers, especially those with their own logo and stickers. So, I figured maybe some Rolex, Omega, etc stickers to go on the sides and on my drawers. Good quality vinyl if possible. The two I got from my friends are really nice, with a pleasant matte/satin look to them.

Make your own...........and while you are at it you could replicate the stickers found on every Rolex. If I was a grey market dealer I'd be doing it all day long.

I've made lots of adhesive labels on my computer......it's easy. The last bit was sarcasm.......and food for thought.

I would imagine that the kinds of 'service' stickers you are referring to would be proprietary in nature and if available, limited to ADS and RSCs.

On the other hand, you could probably replicate or design something along those lines on your own.

I have doubts there are any legit stickers. Anything you can find are likely to be knockoffs like the cuff links and bracelets some people here find cool.

Yep. Found some patches on Amazon as well. Asked the seller and he didn't even hesitate to tell me that there weren't licensed. Yet, Amazon and eBay both have rules against copyright infringement.

I can understand why a watch repairman might want to decorate his work station with logo sticker, if they were authentic and authorized.

You know that the one's shown are not authorized, because the seller will make them to order.

I'd personally stay away from such garbage.

Back in my oil field working days, every contractor and vendor had their own stickers advertising their services and company info. Even the big oil companies had stickers. Workers would put them all over their hard hats and tool boxes. Some were pretty cool and I always looked forward to getting them.
If there are any out there, you should try Ebay. But as Tom says, I'm not sure that they were even made for your field. Good luck in your search.

Yeah, I haven't seen then with watchmakers from what I can tell. However, I have quite a few old parts tins from different old suppliers/brands. They look really cool. May go through those as well and start a collection.
