Triton also has released its new Black Ti collection, featuring a strong, lightweight patented metal formulation that creates a dark, glossy black titanium material that is scratch resistant.
The rings in the collection also feature sterling silver on the inside for a “trendy black and silver contrast.” They range in price from $335 to $355 retail.
