Donut moment - spring bar snapped off in lug hole.
Discussion
Title says it all. I've snapped a spring bar off into one of my lug holes. I've tried tapping it to see if it'll come out. Tried flushing it out. Tired a small pin. Don't have any blue tack to hand but tried chewing gym (don't ask) and it's not coming out.
So tomorrow on the way to work I'm looking for blue tack. Assuming that doesn't work is this something any watch person can get out or is this a send back to manufacturer job?

so magnets are out. Which is probably for the best. 
I'm assuming it's gold I read somewhere that all the pin links in the bracelet are good as well.
You'll see the right hand side is missing the nib.
There's also a chunk of my hand finger missing thanks to a small screwdriver but I'm less worried about that.
And yes Hoofy it's still there smiling at me. Taunting me.
Just to update for anyone in a similar situation. I went to a local jewellers/watch guy on Saturday. A 15 minute wait, a bit of drilling and the offending piece was out. £10.
Bit of a boring answer for the DIYers but it works and my watch is now back on my wrist looking a little less bling on some new leather.
