Jewelry worn by referees, in my opinion, wouldn't pose such a threath as when worn by players (since a ref isn't exposed to the level of contact players can experience). Still I think a referee has a function as a role model and as such I find it not acceptable for him to be wearing jewelry. Therefore I think it's quite acceptable to point this out to your partner(s). This for me being theoretical, since I'm still to experience such a situation.
