I've been shopping around for a new ring for my husband and finally settled on a tungsten band. Tungsten is a hard, rare metal that is naturally found on Earth, and has recently become very popular as a wedding band (for men) because of its durability.
The best selection I have found has been online at Men's Tungsten Online. They have such a great variety of tungsten bands, it has been hard to narrow it down to just one. The reason I am looking in the first place is because my husband has (literally) outgrown his wedding band, which is currently made of titanium. The main reason I am looking at tungsten is because I love the burnished or brushed finish on most of the rings-- it's also scratch resistant.
Another advantage of tungsten it's price point. Here's one of my favorites for only $145!
I wish there was a smaller women's version of this because it would make a great right hand ring.
Tungsten can also be engraved. For only $30 more, MensTungstenOnline will engrave any band with text; for $50 a symbol can be added; and for $100 a pattern. It's less than $250 for a personalized wedding band-- and yes, that includes you own design! Can you imagine how much that would cost in gold!?
I'm pretty sure I have the ring picked out, now I just need to decide if I should surprise him with it, or show him for approval-- what would you do?
