Love the staggered watchrepairuk with the watch face over repair. Would there be anyway to animate that to tell the correct time more than twice a day?

That design, no.

But I'll have a look at it later when I get home from footie.

While I do love that logo, we don't use screwdrivers like that and we certainly do not use spanners !!

Well yeah, but they're two of the things most commonly associated with fixing things.

Cheers skippi, appreciate all your help.

This is true, but anyone who knows anything about watches would run a mile at seeing a spanner associated with watch repair

Spanners are the universal symbol for fixing something. Everyone knows that!

A quick one I came up with, showing various fonts.

Like the second one Roblam, very good, thank you

Two quick ideas.

Obviously, I can start colour variations if you decide on a design. That logo isn't really feasible for an animated clock, but IMO, animated logos are not needed.

Keeping these as simple looking as possible. Think a minimalistic logo lends itself to it's use.

Awaiting details of my free watch service

Its wonky.

BTW, there already is a WatchRepairUK.com, unless that's your site.

http://watchrepairuk.com/

WatchRepairsUK.co.uk is a bit too much UK for me.

Does the logo NEED to have the UK part in it? Personally, I think they look better without.

You could at least kern it properly for the poor fellow

Didn't bother.

They're only first drafts quickly knocked up.

I can see you making the RA summer exhibition.

Not sure what colours you wanted, so I went all out.

That's very psychedelic.
