Charm bracelet might be a search option but I never saw one though.
You could wear a welders watch!

What a horrible, hideous piece of tat!
On the scale of 'rubbishness' that's up there with those football club watches.
Sparkles, you need to get out more.

How odd that it is a girl's watch - is welding a common hobby for teenage women? I keep teasing my 8 year old that I need to teach her to weld. One day she may take me up on it. Perhaps I should get the watch as an incentive...

I remember reading a recent article in a shooting magazine about a guy who did custom shooting related jewellery - I think by the lost wax process. I think he was based in Halesworth in Suffolk but I've not been able to locate him (or a name that I remember) by a web search. I don't know how much it would cost but if you search on custom jewellery - e.g. http://www.gunsandbows.co.uk/prod-jew-01.htm somebody may already have the necessary moulds to cast a MIG torch or whatever.

Thanks for all the sense and non sense about this guys....
(especially mr egghead overthere...
) 
I tried the charm bracelet google but didn't find a mig torch...
saws, hammers yadda yadda but no torch! Really! people have the most stupid things to hang on their bracelets or necklace....they even had an ipod charm.....
Sounds very interesting Al, must be very difficult to make such tiny things in wax!
What do you mean making my own?

No, I think its pretty easy to do - she certainly has no training / background in it (or anything arty), and the seem to come out pretty nicely.
What do you mean 'what do you mean making my own'...? I mean if you'd like to make your own - as you can't find one to buy commercially. Let me know if I've missed the point here!

Someone with a wire EDM may help? Would require some programming...
If you can make the shape you want in wax or clay then try some Precious Metal Clay (PMC). It's a mouldable silver clay that you can shape and when you fire it with a blowtorch if solidifies into silver.
I've played around with it and isn't too difficult to work with so definitely worth considering.
