About Cross
Since 1846, Cross has been redefining the art of writing by creating distinguished, expertly crafted writing tools — and that founding date is not decoration. It makes Cross one of the oldest names in fine writing anywhere, with a heritage that predates most of the brands it now sits beside on a desk. What that longevity buys is confidence in the fundamentals: metal barrels with real weight and balance, refill mechanisms engineered to work for decades, and finishes that hold up to daily handling. For corporate gifting, Cross occupies a particular position — a name recipients recognise as genuinely prestigious, at a price that makes it achievable for a leadership team or a shortlist of key clients rather than a single executive.
Custom Cross Ballpoint Pens at Supply Crew
Supply Crew stocks five Cross ballpoint pens, each supplied in its own Cross presentation box. The ATX brings modern industrial design in a matte black finish with polished accents — the most contemporary piece in the range. The Century II is the classic, embodying the timeless style and elegance that built the brand's reputation. The Calais is the pick for anyone who prefers a larger pen in the hand, with a substantial polished barrel. The Bailey was designed with an eye for detail throughout, and is the range's colour option. And the Coventry blends timeless design with exceptional value, making it the natural choice for a larger presentation run. All five are ballpoints, all metal, and all engrave beautifully.
Cross Craftsmanship & Presentation
Two things make Cross work as a corporate gift rather than just a nice pen. The first is that it arrives ready: every pen in the range comes in a Cross presentation box, so an award night or a client handover needs no additional packaging and nothing looks improvised. The second is engraving. Polished and matte metal barrels are among the best surfaces there are for laser engraving — a logo or a name sits permanently in the metal rather than printed on top, which is the difference between a gift that carries a message and one that wears it off. Add minimum orders starting at five units and Cross becomes genuinely practical for the situations that call for it: retirements, milestone anniversaries, board appointments, contract signings.
Beyond Cross
Looking for more branded merchandise to complement your Cross pens? Supply Crew also offers a wide range of metal pens, rollerball pens and other pens, pencils and writing instruments — including LAMY, Pierre Cardin and Scriptura. Pair a pen with a Moleskine notebook or a premium journal, or build a complete gift pack.

Cross FAQs
+ Can I get Cross pens engraved with my logo?
Yes. Supply Crew supplies genuine Cross pens custom branded with your logo using laser engraving or pad printing. Engraving is the standout on these metal barrels — it marks the surface permanently rather than sitting on top of it, so the branding lasts as long as the pen. Our team will recommend the best method and placement for your artwork.
+ What custom Cross products does Supply Crew offer?
Supply Crew stocks five Cross ballpoint pens — the ATX, Century II, Calais, Bailey and Coventry — each supplied in a Cross presentation box. If you need a rollerball, fountain pen or another Cross model for a specific program, talk to our team about what can be sourced.
+ Can I order a small number of Cross pens?
Yes — the Cross ATX, Century II and Bailey start at a minimum order of just 5 units, with the Calais and Coventry from 10. That makes engraved Cross pens realistic for a retirement presentation, a board appointment, a milestone anniversary or a shortlist of key clients, rather than requiring a bulk commitment.
+ Do Cross pens come in a gift box?
Yes — every Cross pen in the Supply Crew range is supplied in its own Cross presentation box as standard. For an awards night, a farewell or a client handover, that means the gift arrives looking complete with no additional packaging to organise.
+ Which Cross pen should I choose?
Choose the Century II for classic prestige, the ATX if the recipient prefers a modern matte-black look, and the Calais if they favour a larger pen in the hand. The Bailey adds colour to the range, while the Coventry offers Cross quality at the most accessible point — the sensible pick when you're presenting to a larger group.
+ Why is Cross considered a prestige pen brand?
Cross has been making fine writing instruments since 1846, which makes it one of the oldest houses in the category anywhere in the world. That heritage, combined with metal construction, refillable mechanisms built to last and presentation boxing as standard, is why an engraved Cross reads as a considered gift rather than promotional stock — and why recipients tend to keep them for decades.
+ Can I see an artwork proof before production?
Yes — twice over. You can Design & Create your own mockup instantly on any product page to see your logo on the product before you even request a quote. Then, once your order is confirmed, Supply Crew provides a detailed artwork proof for your approval — placement, size and finish — before production begins.
+ What is the minimum order quantity for custom Cross pens?
Minimum order quantities start at 5 units on the Cross ATX, Century II and Bailey, and 10 units on the Calais and Coventry. The exact minimum order quantity is confirmed on each individual product page.
+ How long do custom Cross orders take to produce and deliver?
Custom Cross orders typically take 2–4 weeks for production and delivery, depending on the styles selected, the engraving detail and order volume. Our team will confirm an exact turnaround estimate once your order and artwork are finalised — worth starting early if the pens are for a fixed date like an awards night or a farewell.
