US ring size 12 in UK, Europe and India
US ring size 12 is UK size X½, European (ISO) size 67.5 and Indian/Japanese size 25. That is an inside diameter of 21.49 mm and an inside circumference of 67.51 mm.
How to check this is your size
The surest way is to measure a ring that already fits the right finger. Lay it flat and measure straight across the inside of the band. If it reads about 21.49 mm, you are a US 12.
If you have no ring to hand, wrap a strip of paper around the base of the finger, mark where it overlaps, and measure the length. About 67.51 mm means US 12. Measure at the end of the day, when fingers are at their largest — a ring sized on a cold morning will feel tight by evening.

A note on wide bands
A band wider than about 6 mm sits against more of your finger and feels tighter at the same measurement. Most jewellers suggest going up a quarter to a half size, so a US 12 in a narrow band is often a 12.5 in a wide one.
