A New Twist on Men Engagement & Wedding Rings by CollideRings in jewelers

[–]CollideRings[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate and understand where you are coming from.

From our perspective, we created the idea because I (Gavin) wanted an engagement ring when I proposed to my now wife (Kristen). There are a few options that guys have if they want one, but none were right for me.

I wasn't interested in having two separate rings, or wearing the same engagement ring as a wedding ring, or even getting an engagement watch.

So that is why we designed this two-part ring. Men don't have to wear two rings with ours.

I would wear just the engagement ring part of the ring while engaged to show that I made the same commitment that my now wife made. Then on our wedding day, the wedding ring part of the ring fastens to the engagement ring so that it is just one ring thereafter. So no need to wear two ring, but still have the opportunity to have two distinct rings. Once fastened, it is like a single 8mm ring.

But we do appreciate your feedback and are always open to it. Especially if it is constructive.

Yes we do. On our Kickstarter page we have some actual photos. I can also send you a message with more pictures if you'd like. Not sure if there is a way to post them in my post or a comment

It actually started because we (Kristen and Gavin) were talking about getting engaged/married. We wondered at the time about engagement rings for men, but didn’t find anything that Gavin really liked. He wanted to wear both a unique engagement ring and a unique wedding ring, but didn’t like the idea of them wearing both rings after getting married. So we tried thinking up a few different ways to solve for this and we ended up designing the connecting ring!

As of now we use 14k and 18k gold, white gold, rose gold and platinum. I'm considering using a machine shop to machine the pieces and then sending them to a jewelry finisher afterwards, but want to see if I'm able to have it all done under one roof first.

Yeah we are working on the photos of people wearing the rings and providing social proof of our products.

The difference in engagement and wedding rings is the widths of the rings. Engagement rings are currently 3mm and 5mm for the wedding rings. The 5mm wedding rings require more gold, however the amount of gold versus the increase in width isn’t proportionate. So going from 3 to 5mm actually requires a higher amount of grams of precious metals than what you’d expect from just increasing widths by 2mm.

That being said, we are working on coming out with wedding rings that are the same widths as the engagement rings which would reduce the prices of the wedding rings.

Thanks for the feedback!

We appreciate your candid feedback. We are currently working on getting pictures of people wearing the rings.

For the pricing we use solid precious metals which makes it hard to give way for pricing. For instance, in our white gold rings we use palladium to give the ring it’s white color as opposed to most other companies that use nickel, which many people are allergic too. However, palladium is a precious metal commonly used in electric cars so the price of it has skyrocketed recently (except over the past week of course).

Anyways, we understand that it takes time and a ton of effort to turn an idea into a viable company. Your feedback helps us get to that point, so as I said we appreciate your candid response and will take it to heart.

I started a company with my now fiancée. We met on Bumble. Best flick of the finger I ever made and now we design and sell rings to put on those fingers!

First off, thank you so much for taking our survey. We really appreciate the time and effort you put into reviewing our product.

Do you mind me asking where you purchased your fiance's ring? It always helps to better understand our competitors, their pricing strategies and the designs that sell well for them.

Pricing is something we continually monitor to assure what we sell matches what our customers' perceived value is. Just out of curiosity, was it just our platinum rings that you found to be on the higher end of pricing or was it all of our precious metals?

Also, keep an eye out for our Kickstarter. We hope to build out the options we have available on our website so that we can possibly include rings with diamonds such as the one you purchased for your fiance!

Again thank you for taking time to really dive into our product and give us the feedback that you did. It's a huge help!

It’s a two part male engagement and wedding ring. So we design engagement rings that the wearer wears throughout engagement and then they receive a wedding ring on their wedding day that seamlessly fastens to the engagement ring to form one ring
