Hi everyone. I have been playing around with Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for a few years now. I dabble around with designing logos and graphics. People have been showing interest in my graphics so I'm thinking about starting a tee shirt company and I want to do custom logos for watch faces. I'm able to find lots of information on how to print graphics on shirts, but I cant seem to find any info on screen printing graphics on a small area like a watch face. I see lots of companies on the web offer promo and logo watches. I'm just trying to figure out the process of how its done. Any info, tutorials,links names of equipment would help. Another question. If im creating graphics on the computer and transferring to a shirt is screen printing or heat transfer better? Excuse my complete lack of knowledge. I'm a complete newbie to this. Thanks in advance.

Printing promotional goods such as pens, calculators, flash drives etc. is usually done with pad (tampo) printing rather than screen.
