The ring, inspired by the Classic B.M.T.®, plays on the concept of baguette-cut rings and features three layers of gemstones including pink sapphires, rubies and emeralds that have each been set by hand. The ring is observed with an 18k gold-plated finish and is being given away on February 14, 2026 through an exclusive social media campaign. [EMEA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/subway-3) Senior Marketing Director Kirstey Elston spoke on the Subway Baguette Ring saying, "We wanted to celebrate our most loyal [Subway®](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-picante) fans with something extra special this Valentine’s Day.
