As we all know on the cover of the CD 'In Love With You', GorGor Leslie had a ring on his finger. According to Zhen Yao Jian who was responsible for the photo shoot of the cover, GorGor had specially worn the ring and requested it to be on camera. For this reason GorGor made that special pose on the CD cover of 'In Love With You'. GorGor told him the ring was a gift from a friend.  However back then, Zhen did not know GorGor too well so he did not dare ask further questions about the ring.

Of course we now know "the friend" who had given this ring to GorGor.

The ring on GorGor's finger was the legendary Trinity Must 3-Gold Ring by Les Must De Cartier. This Cartier ring was created in 1924 and it is made up of 3 bands for 3 colours of gold. This magical formula for a ring has become a legend in the world of jewellery. French poet Jean Cocteau adopts it and turns it into a symbol. The tri-colour gold ring is made of yellow, white and pink gold. Yellow gold symbolises loyalty and devotion, white gold is a symbol of friendship and pink gold symbolises love.
