i saw the ads for this and was so hyped that these freaks were getting rich idiots to pay for jewelery with points of failure. impeccable

analog jewelry is so lame according to BrooklynRizzler on tiktok, the most sponsored influencer of all time.

you need to upgrade your old grandpa jewelry to the latest smart jewelry so you can look up your jewelry on your phone and get instant, real time notification from the AksesorizeApp to let you know when you've just shit yourself.

I have a normal friend who doesn't like smart watches, but who wants to monitor his sleep/activity for health reasons.

It's not all rich idiots who pay for this.

And really get to deal with a ticking yime bomb around your fingee

The difference between a $30 ring and $400 ring is $370 of profit margin

You can't get a ticking time bomb ring because the US doesn't have that level of manufacturing capability
