      Hi mr3rown, as far as I know the collection will still be as listed although I'm not sure the different inlay sizes are current any more. We'll have to get one of the team to verify that one for us. And the Stealth Bomber is still present, just minus carbon fiber.

            Has there been any headway with the carbon situation? I absolutely loved the idea of wearing carbon fibre and the weaving looked epic.

              There was an update sent out...[url=https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mclear/nfc-ring/posts/764107:y629hset]Update #33[/url:y629hset]. Basically it says 6 months or you get another choice of ring.

                I think I have a fix for this now, a kevlar alternative that looks like CF. I also think I have a solution for black plated PVD rings being impossible to polish.

                I have begun our R&D process and I should have a result in 8 weeks. It takes ages because every component in the ring is completely different so this is a complete start-from-scratch project!

                    @johnyma22 That's great news! Is the 8 weeks for the Kevlar fiber, the blask plated rings, or both? Either way, it's definitely something to look forward to.

                      I think 8 weeks for an R&D prototype @mkabala -- So far everything is actually going swimmingly the bummer is that I leave my R&D office to go to London for most of the rest of this month, I'm trying to get everything done before I leave but it's certainly going to slow things down :(

                        Great news! Hopefully I'll be able to fiddle around with my replacement before the R&D is finished but I'm amped that there may be a possible replacement.
