Control is good, Trust is better

Tiffany's famous engagement ring - who has not dreamed of the so-called Ring of All Rings? The most brilliant ring ever? What we dream less? From an engagement ring with built-in GPS. Yes, you heard right. British jeweler Steve Bennet has designed a diamond engagement ring with a hidden blue-tooth chip. True to the motto: trust is good, control is better?

"The idea came to me as I thought about how to protect jewelry from theft (...) or give back the jewelry to people who accidentally misplaced it, " Bennet told dailymail. An engagement ring with GPS as theft protection? We find the idea - admittedly - quite getting used to. The fact that we are controlled 24 hours a day - probably only a positive side effect?

"This ring could be the culmination of gratuitous jealousy and fictitious infidelity charges, and he may even be able to save one or the other marriage, " the jeweler explains. Is Bennet really serious about his explanation? Save a marriage - on the basis of mistrust and control mania?

Bennet says the first two prototypes of the ring have already met with great approval. It is offered under the name 'fidelity ring', which translates as loyalty or honesty ring.
