Disclosure Statement
TERMS OF SALE ARE AS FOLLOWED.
RING SIZES ARE GUARANTEED TO THE DIMENSIONS AND TOLERANCES AS STATED BELOW.
DETAILS OTHER THAN SIZE ARE SOLD “AS IS” WITHOUT A WARRANTY OF ANY KIND EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.
You are buying a little piece of history representing the greatest achievement in aeronautics.
The process used in creating a ring takes 2 - 8-hour days of meticulous detailed work. They are hand cut, hand formed, hand ground, hand shaped, hand polished, and hand colored. Every ring is unique.
I strive to the best of my ability to meet the customers design specifications. They are NOT perfect, NOT intended to be perfect, and NOT intended to meet any common jewelry standards in color, or shape. These variations prove that the rings are hand made.
The finish that appears on your item may contain the original manufacture tooling marks, stress or chaffing caused by the extreme temperatures and pressures in the SR-71's exhaust system.
These titanium parts were used to their physical limits and there may be anomalies in the metal itself. The items on this web site is all that remains of them except for the aircraft themselves that are on display in museums. The mission flown titanium parts that these items are composed from are considered priceless artifacts of aviation history.
SIZES AND TOLERANCES
By ordering rings you the buyer have determined the size and specifics dimensions. You must provide either a sample ring or an exact dimension in inches to 3 decimal places (0.000). That is the United States customary systems of measurement. There are several systems for denoting the sizes of rings in use around the world.
I just need a dimension.
(SIZE TOLERANCES)
Ring SIZE (smallest part of the inside diameter) tolerances are plus or minus 0.005".
Ring WIDTH tolerances are plus or minus 0.030".
Ring THICKNESS tolerances are plus or minus 0.030".
IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO RESIZE A RING LARGER TO ABOUT 1/2 RING SIZE.
RE-SIZING A COMPLETED RING TO A SMALLER SIZE IS NOT POSSIBLE.
The items are custom made. I have no "pre-made stock". There are no exchanges. There are no refunds.
FULL REFUNDS ARE ALLOWED FOR ORDERS ONLY IF-
THE SIZE OF THE RINGS EXCEED THE DIMENSION AND TOLERANCE LISTED ON THE INVOICE (EMAIL).
CUSTOMERS MUST DETERMINE THAT THE STYLE, SIZES, WIDTH, THICKNESS, FINISH, & COLOR THEY REQUEST ARE ACCURATE ON THE INVOICE (EMAIL) WHEN MAKING THE PURCHASE.
I will only consider refunds or remakes if the requested size is different than the dimensions stated on the invoice (EMAIL) contract by more than the tolerances as stated above.
THANK YOU !
