+1 I was just gonna say, it feels naked without it. I was told when I got it to just remember you will get your finger back with the ring on it lol.
hurts too, wife and i would bump knuckles once in a while doing whatever randomly and you'd hear "oww" on both ends screw polishing, nothing like water and a towel to make it look new.
I'm getting married in October and the band I picked out is also Tungsten! What sold me on it was my fiances friend that works at the jewlery store we use took the ring and drug it across carpet, wood, beat it on anything she could think of, took two idenical rings and rubbed them together hard, and they NEVER scratched once!
I have $380 in mine, but also has a lifetime replacement with it. If my fingers ever shrink or swell, I send it in and they send me a brand new one, no questions asked. Also the same if it gets damaged.

Nevermind my dry ass hands, as I had been working outside in the cold all day before we went in to pick out/buy this band. This is the one I described in the post above. I will get to officially start wearing it 10-11-13!!
Broke my tungsten ring while drying my hands, slipped off and hit a tile floor. Jeweler replaced it for free with a nicer one so be careful. :beer:
I think it's great that people are now going beyond the traditional gold wedding bands. There are SO many design choices now. I like that one, KSSTANG.
I'm not one for jewelry at all. Only wear a watch.
If and when I get married, I'm going to get a tattoo of the ring.
This will be in the center (never ending celtic knot - eternity):
This will border it (polynesian band):

celtic knot black and green tattoo for me. 90 bucks
Mine is white gold in a hammered finish. Still looks new, and I've yet to see one like it.
me too...
I had a titanium ring, it was great, but after losing 85lbs it doesn't fit anymore and can't be resized. I got a pretty good deal on it at the time, but after seeing this thread I just ordered a tungsten carbide ring off of ebay, thanks!
Went with a black ring this time, my titanium ring was the same style, but in a matte silver finish with polished beveled edges.

I have a unique view on wedding rings. I'm a machinist by trade. By far get what you want. But if you want something thats going to last get Carbide or Titanium.
I perfer carbide over titanium. You use carbide to cut titanium. With carbide you can not have it resized. The only thing that can cut carbide is diamonds. Get sized locally. Then buy from Amazon. Mine was $30.00 with shipping. Oh the carbide rings generally run a half of size big. We ordered a size 13 which is what normally ware, but sent it back for a 12.5. Locally the stores wanted $400.00-$600.00 for the same ring. Trust me carbide is carbide, no matter what grade it is. It should be heavy and almost impossible to scratch. But if your car falls on your hand, the ring will shatter. So hard it want bend, it just cracks and shatters. :thumbsup:
