I have found the ideal christmas pressie for my wife, a white gold ring with an amber inset. She bought one from Prague a couple of years ago and she loved it but recently the amber fell out so I decided it would make an ideal chrissie pressie to replace it.

However, I can only find a ring I like online and they won't return it if it is the wrong size - problem I have is I don't know her ring size (no tittering at the back please! ;) )

Is there an easy way of determining a persons ring size ( I said NO tittering!!) without asking that person and giving the game away?

I could probably go take one of her rings to a jeweller and ask what size it is but unless I am buying a ring then they probably wouldn't like it. Unfortunately, the ring I have seen takes 10 days to be delivered so I haven't much time and I won't have time to goto a jeweller until next week now.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Steal an old ring of her and get it measured or ask her mum if she knows her size. JD.

I haven't time to goto a jewellers now before next week and by then it would be too late.

Damn...her mum...good idea...wish I had thought of that...Thanks :)

ROTFLMAO - People at work looking at me weirdly now!!

Plenty of places will help you out, most high street jewellers will give you a ring for you to return for the correct size when you have popped the question.

Yeah I know but I ain't got the time now and it isn't an engagement ring.

If you know someone that has a digital vernier (measuring device) then you could just measure the ring yourself and google ring measurements.

Why is the obvious always such good advice? And why don't I ever think of the obvious?

I don't have a vernier but I do have rulers. Just have to make sure I measure for a slightly larger finger.

I have found a couple of sites with ring size charts which should help.

Thanks guys
 
AARGH! Too much! ;)

Thanks for all the feedback. I have spoken to the online company and they have advised that they cannot guarantee a chrimbo delivery for this style! Oh well. Still, I really want this ring and her birthday comes up in February so I will have time to get an old ring measured (she still wears it). Oh, people don't forgot to titter at 'old ring'

Feel free now to let yourselves lose on 'ring' gags!! ;)
