Is it just the pin missing or is it the whole lot broken off?

Hi Mark,

Just about any jeweller anywhere would either be able to, or know someone else who could do, such a repair ??

Dave.

I have a spare pin from an old badge, all you would need to do is carefully tap the bar through and put the new pin in place before putting the bar back in place. If you would like the pin drop me a PM.

edit: I should have asked what length pin is needed? I can check the length before sending.

Phil

It's very unlikely to fit ,as all the dimensions need to be correct to form the hinge
