FAQs

Is the Armour Ring heavy to wear?

At 25.5g, it is considered a statement piece and is heavier than a traditional band, but the hinged design helps distribute the weight comfortably.

Can I resize the Armour Ring?

Due to the intricate, multi-section hinged construction, resizing this ring is complex and not recommended, as it could compromise the integrity of the hinges.

Is this ring suitable for daily wear?

Yes, it is durable enough for daily use, though you should remove it before engaging in heavy physical work or swimming to protect the finish.

What is the material composition?

The ring features platinum-plated silver for a durable and high-shine finish.

Is the ring unisex?

Yes, the design is intended to be worn by anyone, regardless of gender.

How do I clean the ring?

Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid chemical jewelry cleaners to protect the platinum plating.

Troubleshooting

Hinge feels stiff or resistant

Check for trapped lint or debris in the joints and gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

Ring surface loses luster

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your ring, avoid direct contact with perfumes, hairsprays, or harsh cleaning chemicals that can dull the platinum plating. When not wearing the piece, store it in its original pouch or a soft-lined jewelry box to prevent the hinge sections from catching or scratching. If the hinges appear to stiffen, a soft, dry lint-free cloth can be used to gently remove debris. Avoid submerging the ring in ultrasonic cleaners, as the vibrations may affect the hinge mechanism.
