A jewelry apparatus can include a base member having a hippocrepiform configuration, the base member having a first prong and a second prong. The jewelry apparatus can include a coupling member operably configured for attachment to the base member. The coupling member can include a disk member having a first side and a second side, the first side having a first set of indicia depicting a first partial portion of a word, the second side having a second set of indicia depicting a second partial portion of the word, a first projection extending from the disk member operably configured for attachment to the first prong and a second projection extending from the disk member operably configured for attachment to the second prong. The coupling member is configured to rotate such that the first set of indicia and the second set of indicia create the visual appearance of the word.

A ring with a rotation and a lock function to display multiple anniversaries, the ring comprising: a main ring including engagement areas and distant areas between the engagement areas; a sub ring rotatably engaged with the main ring, and engagement members positioned between the main ring and the sub ring, wherein the subring includes a receiver receiving the engagement member and including a first to fourth side with an opening area; wherein a length of the opening area is shorter than that of the first side; wherein the engagement member is made of elastic materials and positioned in the receiver; wherein when the opening area is aligned with the engagement groove area, the engagement member is protruded from the receiver and engaged with the engagement groove; wherein when the opening area is aligned with the distant area, the engagement member is inserted in the receiver.

A personal status communication system for nonverbally communicating relationship status and intention includes a plurality of rings. Each of the plurality of rings has an outer surface, an inner surface and a perimeter surface extending between the outer surface and the inner surface. Each of the outer surfaces is colored one of a plurality of colorations. Each of the plurality of colorations is different from each other and each of the colorations indicates its own relationship significance.

A personal jewelry article includes a light source coupled to a power source and located within a compartment interior of a shank of the personal jewelry article. A stone is connected to the shank above the compartment. The light source emits light through the stone and the stone alters the light emitted by the light source.

Systems and methods are presented for establishing a communication link between two or more electronic devices. A portable eyewear electronic device is configured to communicate with a handheld electronic device, such as a ring, that in turn is retained by an accessory electronic device to establish a wired communication link. The accessory electronic device may be retained or housed by a second accessory electronic device, such as a remote control or wearable device.

A ring-type wearable device is disclosed. The disclosed ring-type wearable device comprises: an outer ring member; an inner ring member separably inserted into the outer ring member; a sensor unit disposed in the outer ring member; and a control unit disposed in the outer ring member so as to be electrically connected to the sensor unit, wherein the sensor unit can maintain constant sensitivity in correspondence to the thickness of the inner ring member.

A wearable payment device, such as a finger ring worn by a user, communicates payment data to a payment reader that uses the payment data in order to request a payment transaction. Such wearable payment device may be conveniently carried by and accessible to the user such that utilization of the payment device for the payment transaction is less burdensome for the user, thereby encouraging use of the payment device for payments. Indeed, in some cases, such as when the payment device is implemented as a finger ring or other type of jewelry, the user may be encouraged to carry the payment device in an exposed manner such that it is readily available for the payment transaction without the user having to search in a wallet, pocket, or purse.

A jewelry ring designed to be worn on the finger of a hand, having rotating halves that when rotated against one another cause the legs of a Horse or other figure attached to the outward face to move in a naturally articulate manner or run. The rings assembly consists of an inner and outer cylinder that contain one or more inner gears or friction driven cylinders which are positioned perpendicular relative to the center axis of the rotating cylinders and are held in place by the two cylinders. When the cylinders of the ring are rotated in opposing directions the cylinders that are positioned perpendicular to the center axis rotate. The rotational movement of the cylinders that are positioned perpendicular to the center axes cause the leg elements, consisting of upper and lower sections, connected to the cylinder and the Horse or other figure by rotational joints, to move in a fashion designed to mimic the natural leg movement of the horse or other figure on the ring or to appear to run.

The finger-mounted mechanical counter is a numerical counter that may be worn on the finger of a user. First, second and third wheels each have a set of indicia formed thereon, each set of indicia being a circumferentially arrayed set of integers, such as a continuous range from 0 to 9. The first, second and third wheels are rotatably mounted within a housing having corresponding first, second and third slots formed therein for display of the corresponding indicia. The housing defines a central passage which is adapted for receiving the finger of the user. After a full rotation of the first wheel, the second wheel is rotated by a single increment, and after full rotation of the second wheel, the third wheel is rotated by a single increment, allowing for consecutive counting from single digits to double digits to triple digits.
