I have bought 1986 IBM Model M 122. It was in good condition, but was missing a square IBM logo badge. I asked my collegue (his friend owns the necessary equipment) if he could help to make a reproduction badge. That guy made ten of them! I don't need that much, so I can give away 8 of them for the cost of shipping.
Photos: Badges are 0.75"×0.75" in size, made from 0.5 mm aluminium sheet. Printing method is laser engraving with color infill. Don't know if it would be better with dye-sublimation, but they look nice.
Edit: image URL, another photo.

I'd like to have one. Your image links doesn't work though.

I'd like to have one.

ok, PM me your address. There is no need for prepayment. The calculator on Russian post service's website doesn't work at this moment, but I think that it will be no more that 2–3 USD to EU.

The image link isn't working because you only used the imgur page. You need to have the direct link, so instead of:

You should instead use:

Thanks for the advice. Added another photo.

Those badges look very nice. I'm interested as well!

ALSO: I don't think I've ever seen the legend "Allin Destr" before, and I wonder what national layout have you got. Can we see a picture of the full keyboard? Thanks!

Wow that you be really useful to have! I would be up to grab one, so many model m's I didn't buy because it was missing the badge.

It's Italian, here is full album. I have bought it with another two Italian boards — 1996 M 122 and F XT.
Looks like that website is online again, I will post shipping rates in about 1 hour.

I would be interested in one too.

There is 1 or 2 badges left. Shipping is 3 USD to Europe, 3.5 USD to US and Canada.

I will take one

P.S. Important note. Make shure that your keyboard uses 0.75" badge, not 1". AFAIK, 0.75" was only for F-122 and 1st generation of M-122.

Good GB. I ran something similar a while ago.

All 8 badges are distributed now. I have all addresses except Brett MacK.
I don't have any information about another batch yet, only minimum order amount ($50), going to ask a couple of other companies. Some of you asked about badges in inverted color (silver logo on black background) — I don't know about suitability of laser engraving for that kind of badges, let's wait for the information.
Maybe it will be cheaper to produce them in EU and US? Shipping from Russia is slow and unreliable. Here is Inkscape file for it, I have slightly increased the side margins.

I have shipped all badges today, PM'ed the tracking numbers.

I got it today! It's a very nice looking badge, you can clearly feel the ridges in the logo. If only it would fit my F122.

That's sad. I thought that F-122 badge has the same dimensions as 1st gen M122 (0.75").

I've measured your badge at 1.8cm x 1.8cm, the one of my F122 is 2cm x 2cm.
