What to do if I don’t know my ring size?
If you are in San Diego, we can schedule an in house ring sizing for you. If you are out of town we have ring sizers we can send you. However, the most accurate way to get you exact size is to be professionally sized. We can do that in house or we recommend going to your local jewelry store.

How long does it take to ship a custom ring?
Custom Engagement Rings that are made to order typically take 6-8 weeks from start to finish. If it is a design we already have and you are changing something very small it can be as quick as two weeks. Each piece is different and depends on the details of the design and sourcing of stones.
How long does it take to ship a made to order piece?
It depends but usually 3-4 weeks but if we have it in house it will be much quicker. You will get an update as soon as the order is placed with an approximate ship date. This does not include Custom Engagement Rings. This only includes pieces you find online at our website that are made to order pieces.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR JEWELRY
- Insure your ring immediately upon receiving it
- If you are local please bring your jewelry in to our showroom so we can look at it and make sure it's looking healthy. If you are out of town, bring it to a trusted jeweler and contact us if anything needs repaired.
- Clean your jewelry with warm soapy water and a soft toothbrush. Brush with care and don’t forget to close that sink drain.
- Purchase a jewelry case or something to store your jewelry in every day so you do lose it.
- Take off your jewelry when you think it could be compromised. Cleaning, exercising, yard work. Your jewelry is not indestructible, treat it with care and store it in a safe place.

RING RESIZING
We are happy to provide a ring resizing if you didn’t get the size right. Please email us info@scoutfinejewelry.com for a quote and shipping instructions. Please note that resizing your SCOUT piece at another jeweler voids any SCOUT warranty.
