Does anyone have the lock ring? I want to order the half rose - half white gold pave one online. I havent tried it on, and it looks like an oblong shape instead of round. I want it to stack with an eternity band. Will this work? Is it uncomfortable? Thanks!
 
Very tricky to do this online rather than in person, @micha67. The Lock mechanism in the bracelet means that in a given size, say size medium for example, the medium Lock bracelet will be larger than another Tiffany medium non-Lock bracelet. It there any way you can get to a boutique? If not, next best thing would be to speak with Tiffany's Customer Service. You should know the size of your eternity band and ask for advice on which size to buy to stack with that band.

I tried on the thinner lock ring, picture here. I did not care for the oval shape, you would either have to wear it only on your pointer/pinky finger or deal with the part that sticks out between your fingers. While I was trying it on, it kept spinning so the thicker part was at the bottom of my hand.
 
As a follow up, I tried the larger size lock ring (the one that comes in plain rose gold on one side and white gold pave on the other). I can’t imagine that this ring would work on anyone’s finger. It’s oval, so it’s tight top to bottom but so wide side to side. Added to that, it’s so thick on the plain gold side side that it doesn’t fit well between fingers. Overall, a terrible design that I’m surprised made it out! Maybe it’s better on a man?

I do think the smaller ones pictured above are cute, but they don’t come in the color/pave combination I like!

I agree with what others have posted here…the Lock ring is uncomfortable and hard to wear. I tried the larger version, just like in @micha67 ’s picture, and it was so thick on the sides, forcing your fingers to splay. The SA said the smaller version would be more comfortable (they didn’t have it in yet) but as long as the opening is oval it doesn’t work.

Imho Tiffany’s design team wasn’t really thinking clearly with putting emphasis on rings for the Lock collection. Bracelets, yes, obviously. But there should be more size and design options in the earrings and necklaces…this is where the oval lock design makes sense. Not rings!
