The Apple Watch has the potential to be one of the most personal devices that Apple has ever launched, and so adding a bit of personalization in an engraving could be a perfect combination.

According to a report published recently by French tech site iPhonote [translate], Apple is planning on offering personalized engravings on the Watch, which would be right in line with engraving options it has offered on other Apple-branded devices, including the iPod lineup, the iPhone and iPad. The report cites an anonymous source that has some form of “involvement with Apple,” and while they are sure the engraving option is coming, they are unsure if the option will be available on the Watch’s launch date.

Engravings on watches are certainly not new, so offering that extra bit of customization and personalization for the Watch makes perfect sense.

The question that has to be raised when talking about engraving, though, is where it would go. As noted by MacRumors, the the heart rate sensor on the backside of the wearable takes up the majority of real estate there, so it wouldn’t be possible to have an engraving placed there. As pictured above, there could be some room around the sensor, but it wouldn’t be much. There’s some speculation that it could be featured on the opposite side of the Watch from the Digital Crown, but that’s debatable as well.

Apple has scheduled a March 9 “Spring forward” event, in which it is expected the company will bring the Watch center stage all over again, and finally unveil all of the details we’ve all been waiting for. Including a specific launch date, and the final price tag.
