Here is my Datsun Wedding ring!
37grams of gold with a nice RFID capsule encased to open my Datsun door.

Here is the RFID chip...
Will upload schematics etc for those who wish to ever repeat when I have installed the reader and arduino board into the door when I come back from the honeymoon.
Ring was custom designed and made by Glen James Jeweller (

Don't think my wife would have gone for it. Within 3 months of Marriage, 2 Datos gone. But Marriage is an endurance not a sprint, got 4 Datos Now! Still think there would be words about the ring though. Well done, looks great and ultra functional.
All the best for Friday.

Be a good incentive not to drink and drive. You might fall onto the car and scrath the paint with your ring.
But seriously, that is pretty hardcore! You are a hardcore datto fiend if ever I've met one.

Badass ring dude. Im epic jealous. Best i could do for my wedding was Datsun cufflinks and tie pins on all the boys and sweet datsun wedding cars.
