Morning all I'm after some advice on sourcing a small blue seconds hands as per image

Yep i've  lost mine trying to put it back on my watch. shot off and landed on carpet (brown) and now it's in the twilight zone never to be seen again.

I've put a gold one on for now but I would like a blue one to match the hands already fitted by me.

I've looked on cousins, Amazon and ebay but I can't find any 😞 It maybe my own lack of knowledge in searching for these parts,  also has anyone got two or three I could buy

I maybe repeating advice you've already found elsewhere and discarded, but normally the part you think is irretrievably lost can be found by using the right tools and techniques. Stretch a fine-mesh sock or nylon stockings over the nozzle of your vacuum cleaner and go over the carpet with it. If it is a steel hand, use a magnet.

So what about sliding a small piece of paper underneath the small second hand and painting it blue I have some primer and airbrush acrylic paint ?? I have ordered a selection of hands to try bluing one but I don't think I will be able to match the colour. 

The original hand had blue film over the top of the hand only noticed as it started coming away from the hand
