A great ring July 16, 2010

This is a great ring. But I want to help potential buyers know what they're getting.
8mm is wide and I think looks good on longer fingers.
Comfort fit means the inside is rounded. Although it appears that the ring has sharp edges, the inside edge gently curves down. It looks sharp, but it's not.
The flat design means you'll get banded reflections from the ring as seen in the picture. Admittedly it also makes the ring look like a pipe joint that you found and decided to put on your finger. The outside edge has a 45° angle with a very sharp look (as discussed above). I would describe this design as more modern so you should think about if you'll still want a ring like this is 10 years or more.
The color is darker than most metallic objects, but the ring is so nearly a mirror that it's hard to tell. If you're attracted to tungsten/tungsten carbide rings because they're darker or just don't want such a shiny ring, you should get a "matte" ring.
A tungsten carbide ring should rarely scratch. I've only had the ring a couple weeks, but I have done a couple workouts with iron dumbbells which did not scratch the ring at all (or affect it in any other way).
I understand that tungsten carbide rings will shatter when hit with force (such as accidentally with a hammer or closed in a door) rather than bend or dent like a gold ring. They also cannot be resized or cut off (in case of finger swelling, in such a case the ring will have to be shattered to be removed). They are typically not sold under warranty, so I see no reason to buy one from a jeweler. With a ring this cheap your warranty could be to buy two.
Also, don't guess at ring size. Go get sized. Find the size that is comfortable but won't slip off when washing your hands with soap.

I LOVE this ring. I'm a little weird and I got it as an auxiliary to my real wedding band (as a backup to use when doing work with my hands so as not to worry about scratching or damaging). It's virtually indestructible. I don't think I could scratch it if I wanted to. It's definitely a little heavier than most other metals - but it's extremely comfortable. Lowdown: it looks great and feels great. Just be aware that it's pretty big and pretty heavy.

This ring is awesome! I'm getting married soon and I wanted a manly ring for a wedding band. No diamonds, gold, etc. just a chunk of metal. Honestly I wanted something that looks like a skateboard bering without the insides. This ring is absolutely perfect for my needs.
The price is right and it shipped super quick. I ordered it in an 8.5 but had to return it to get an 8. The return process was super easy and they only charged for shipping the second one.

This ring is absolutely beautiful. It has a really high quality feel - better than gold (heavy). The rounded inside makes for a comfortable fit without being too thick (like my last one that I lost, but that is another story) Most tungsten rings I have found that are comfort fit I need to order a half size up, which I did for this one, and it worked out perfectly.
Worth every penny and then some...!!! May 12, 2010

Very shiny, beautifully machined and polished, perfect in every way. It's got good weight to it so you don't forget that you have a ring on, weighs as much as my 14K white gold ring, only this ring is TRULY SCRATCH RESISTANT!!! I dropped it on my drive way and it rolled down to the street before I retrieved it. Absolutely no scratch.
Mind you this ring is pretty thick, about 2~3mm or so. Make sure you have "fat" fingers like me, otherwise it'll look kinda weird on your finger.
This is a perfect ring for a man. Why spend hundreds even thousands for a "precious" metal that'll tarnish after a short while, when you can have a prefect ring for 1/100 of the price??? And this ring will last a loooooong time!!

| Wedding rings are best to be simple, yet elegant. Regardless the material (like silver, gold, white gold, titanuim, platinum), wedding rings come in so many models and shapes, that it is impossible not to find your dreams wedding bands, for both the bride and the groom. Wedding rings can be different for a couple: the bride's one can have some small diamonds, which the groom may wish not to have, if he is not so much of a fancy guy. Get stylish and beautiful wedding rings from our shop, and have a nice wedding ceremony, and a happy married life. Engagement rings are also available.
Have you ever thought what is the meaning of wedding rings? They show your love for each other, your faith in your partner's good will, your binding on this Earth until death do you part. All brides give the importance they should to choosing the wedding ring model and material, but not all grooms share the enthusiasm of their beloved partners for diamonds or Swarovski crystals or complicate ornaments. Most men getting married would love their wedding bads just plain, simple, with no fancy models all over. If this is the case, you can always go for slightly different models of wedding rings: the bride can have her diamonds, while the groom will have only the plain gold, or silver, or platinum, or whatever metal you decide to go for. Cheap or expensive, wedding rings are symbols, so you don't have to go in deep debt to buy the most expensive ones: there are a lot in cool and yet inexpensive wedding rings that you'd find your match for sure. |
