I wear tungsten carbide. It's a little heavy but doesn't bend and distort like gold, they say they won't scratch but they do.
Same here. Had damn good luck with mine. I
 
Wear a tungsten rear every day. Second one I've had. Broke the first one. Have a qalo but didn't like the feeling it gave me. Felt like it was squeezing my finger. If I'm doing any kind of work with my hand ring comes off. Wheelin ring stays in the tow rig.

I got a tattoo, because I couldn't wear any kind of ring with my old job

Mines titanium. They said it was indestructible, wear resistant, scratch proof, etc. It looks pretty rough after over 10 years of abuse and it's had some welding slag bench grinded off it a few times. I grounded it on an alternator once but luckily my skin on my hands is tough enough it didn't burn me too bad. I have looked into the cheap rubber ones but I just have gotten used to this one. I have taken it off 3 times and lose it every time I do.
 
I don't be know how y'all wear a ring. I have a class ring my mom talked me into buying and wore it once hated the feeling. Plus the whole ring avulsion thing. If I ever get married I'll get a tattoo or do like my dad and not wear it.

I thought the same thing but something like this is a little easier/less to wear than a class ring. I don't even think about it anymore.

Originally I had a gold band for the first ten years and then retired it for our son to use when it's his time and replaced it with a Platinum band. The only regret is that it has detail on it and catches all the dirt in the grooves. Other than that, it's pretty tough.

I think a silicon band is what most everyone who wrenches on stuff wears these days. I have a nice band I wear when we go on vacation or out, but day to day wear a silicon band. One of the cheapo 3 packs off of Amazon. I've been wearing the same one for over a year now.
 
Something to think about guys, when they say indestructible and stuff........be careful of what you choose. Certain things have to be cut off, Tungsten has to be crushed off, etc. So if you have an accident, depending on what it's made of may make it harder to get off.

I rock a silicone ring now. I have a Titanium ring for my wedding and nice occasions. It's light and can easily be cut, plus the dang thing was surprisingly cheap.

I don't like rings, I hate them. But I wear mine out of respect for my wife. Otherwise I'd never wear a ring period.

This silicone one has been through a lot so far, and after about 2 years, it's holding up great. After watching my father and other friends deglove their fingers, I'm a big NOPE on that ****.

I watched this happen to a guy when I was doing contract work and that's pretty much when I swore off rings. He was 10 feet from me when it happened and I got blood splatter from it on me.
 
I wear a TSL tread ring!!
My wife found a guy that makes tire tread rings.

He didn't have the TSL listed when I got mine but was great about making anything you wanted.
Had it made in cobalt.
This was a few years ago and he was only guy at that time - looks like there are several more now.
Also - he didn't offer the pendant at that time - wife would have gotten one

Check out Groove rings. They have ventilation grooves on the inside of the ring so they dry out quickly, they've also got a kick ass warranty. I've been wearing mine through an entire deployment with zero issues

Been married 28 years and have always had a ring. Started off with a cheap gold band that I lost somehow, IDK. So we bought another one a little nicer with some scrolling on the edges and it lasted but the scrolling didn't. So then we took a bunch of damaged jewelry she had and melted it all into a nugget ring, yep I got one of those. Next we went and bought a very nice gold band with diamonds in it for "special occasions" like if I think I might get laid. Still have the nugget ring and the 2nd band and the special occasion ring. For our 25th she got her original diamonds reset into some very nice rings and I got a really nice tungsten carbide ring that has some cuts along the edges and a carbon fiber insert in the middle. The ring is 3/8 wide and thick. I really like it except that I am always hitting it on stuff. Anytime I am working I have to take it off cause it's always in the way. They said I couldn't scratch it, I said bullshit. Well I have not scratched the tungsten carbide but I have scratched plenty of things with it. And I have scratched the **** out of the clear coating over the carbon fiber insert. I have polished it out several times, needs it again right now. Been thinking about a silicon ring but have not looked into them yet.

I had stainless steel it got all bent and distorted ended up loosing it. Went to the silicone liked them but they made my hand itch. Now I wear a ceramic band looks just like a nice metal ring just supposed to break before it bends or anything so you don't have to cut your ring off or your finger for some of those really hard metals.
