There is no way they glued it back on! They fixed it professionally and properly and YES it matches the same glow.

I would expect the pearl is pinned to the bezel.

The remains of the broken pin would be removed and a new insert pressed in?

To be fair the OP's thread states "The pearl fell off my hulk".

Smacking it on a door does put a different slant in the issue.

Fell off = sliced off from the corner of the door... LOL

I believe they removed the bezel, removed the remaining pin / stem from the old pearl and pressed a new one on.

Happy that you got it sorted and the price was not so bad.
