    I'm afraid I don't know about custom ingraved/made materials, but QVC has a NICE Swiss steel
    pendant/bracelet/shoetag arrangement. IT's a screwtop case about the size of a US nickel, it claims
    to be crush and water resistant... (I've had mine for 2 months and just opened the

    I'm afraid I don't know anything about custom engraved/made jewelry that doubles as medic alert
    tags, however, QVC carries one that I rec'd for my b-day...

    It comes in stainless and gold tone/plate(?) and is Swiss made. IT has a screw top compartment with
    a rubber gasket sealing it. The company claims it is crush resistent and water resistant. They offer
    the pendant, bracelet and shoe tag (clips into the laces on your sneakers for jogging, etc.).

    It comes with a 1ft long 1/2 wide strip of paper that has enough room to write a life history, or so
    it seems... One side has the caduseus (snake wrapped around a staff) and the other has the 6 armed
    medical alert symbol with the "SOS" logo and the direction to open the compartment.

    I sworn that if I had to wear an MED ID Bracelet the rest of my life, it would be as nice as the
    jewelry I already wore. I designed my own bracelet and my local jeweler made a beautiful one of
    white and gold -gold with diamonds. The medical emblem is the same as on all ID's but in gold and
    my medicalert number, diabetes, & shellfish allergies is engraved on the back, along with my name

    Have had loads of complements and love it.

    I checked with a few jewelers in town when I was looking for mine. They each had a place where they
    could order per my specifications. I was looking for 18kt gold and they were veery pricey (nearly
    $700). I ended up going with MedicAlert www.medicalert.org because they have sales all the time on
    the expensive stuff (nearly half price) and I ended up getting mine for $300 or so. They had several
    styles to choose from and I couldn't beat the price anywhere else. ~Lindy~
