I recently got into watch repair and maintenance. Of course, my mother, hearing this has asked me to replace one of the missing pins in her one watch bracelet. I took one of the other pins out but am finding nothing online that look like it. Is someone able to help me know what the type of pin this is and where I can order them from?

Its measuring 1.0mm thickness & 13mm long

 

I tried to take a few pics for reference. It is completely solid with a small cut on the one end.

Welcome onboard. Check that it is not a tapered pin. Cousinsuk stock tapered and solid pins. You may be able to get away with using a normal cotter/split pin for bracelets.

thank you for the Welcome message. I measured both ends and they are measuring the same thickness so I do not believe they are tapered. I may have to try the cotter pin avenue. thanks
