One of our colleagues will be leaving us soon and we think a very nice pen with a custom engraving would be an ideal gift. Our virtual goodbye party is the end of next week.

Kramer Kreig in Lausanne has nice pens, but a 3-4 week delay for custom engraving, which seems ridiculous.

Options at Manor were poor, and we don't know of any other shops.

If anyone would have a suggestion for where else to look for high-end pens with engraving, it would be much appreciated.

Usually a good bookstore / stationery shop should have those. But the timing is probably too short.

Also check with Caran d'Ache. Maybe if you try to call them? https://www.carandache.com/ch/fr/

In Zurich it would be Zumstein. https://www.zumstein.ch/ki/Buerobeda...uellfeder.html
They don't have a shop in French but if there is anything you like I could call them and ask. PM me if that would help.
