Although I will definitely be in INTENSE conversations with the jeweler, the center stone was lost out of my fiance''s e-ring last week. I had just gotten the Chubb Insurance and hadn''t even seen the policy documents yet. I will call them Monday, but I have this question about whether they will replace the center stone only (because we have the rest of the ring).
Now that I have the policy documents, there is a provision that reads:
Gradual or sudden loss
We do not provide coverage for the presence of wear and tear, gradual deterioration, rust, bacteria, corrosion, dry or wet rot, or warping, however caused, or any loss caused by wear and tear, gradual deterioration, rust, bacteria, corrosion, dry or wet rot, or warping, insects or vermin. We also do not cover any loss cuased by inherent vice, latent defect or mechanical breakdown. But we do insure ensuing covered loss unless another exclusion applies.
This paragraph (particularly the last sentence) is pretty cryptic. I''m just wondering has anyone heard of this or a similar situation with Chubb. I just want to know whether I''ll have to go to jail for killing the jeweler or whether I can just maim them for the pain they''ve caused my fiance (the ring has not a scratch on it).
BTW, the stone was lost in an airport in Canada, so there is little chance of finding it although we are holding out hope.
