[QUOTE="stracci, post: 2708320, member: 13814"]I assume the clasp still works. I can't actually hold it in my hands to see the break. But based on your photos, this is how you could easily join those two panels. Drill two small holes on each side of the panels ( four holes total) and add some sterling jump rings. Super easy and costs you nothing. Sorta like this. [IMG]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/kzcAAOSwSY9a5jYN/s-l500.jpg[/IMG] I would place the holes further apart on your panels than what this photo shows, but you get the idea. Yes, the gap in the links will be different from the rest., but on the wrist I dont think it would be that noticeable. If you change your mind down the road, and want the hinges professionally repaired, a competent jeweler could easily fill in the drill holes before replacing the hinge.[/QUOTE]
