Each tag is individually pressed by Philippe on a restored 1960s Model IV Impact Press. Unlike modern laser engraving, this antique machine leaves a physical imprint — each character showing subtle variations in depth and texture depending on the pressure — making every tag one of a kind.
Necklace Includes:
Two brass rolled-edge dog tags, true to original military form
1 brass ball chain brass clasp
1 brass ball bead chain necklace (military spec 26”, 2.4mm ball bead chain)
Choice of custom hand-pressed lettering on both dog tags
2 black silicone silencers (used in war to keep dog tags from clanking or giving away their location)
*Your tag will age gracefully — expect light wear and a natural patina that develops with time.
After purchase, you’ll receive an email to confirm your custom engraving. The first dog tag can include a first name or a first name with last initial. The second tag may feature a nickname or a short phrase of 2–3 words.
