What I received was must better than I expected. Last I heard that tungsten carbide rings were hundreds of dollars, and there were not many designs to choose from - this is amazing. Very shiny and eye-catching. I kept dinging up my wedding band and needed something stronger to hold up in my line of work and travel. This fit the bill. I've had it on now for a few weeks, and it shows absolutely no wear, or scratches whatsoever. The gold inlay is sharp, and is under a clear protective coating as to protect the design. No scratches on that either - and I'm rough on rings and watches. This is listed as a comfort fit. I didn't know what that meant, but after wearing it consecutively now for over a week straight, I understand. My gold wedding band was uncomfortable after a full day's wear - this is extremely comfortable. I've worn it to bed, to shower, swim, work-out etc. Very comfortable to wear. Overall I'm impressed. I would easily have paid several times what this ring is worth for the quality and comfort of this ring. A great product and great deal.
UPDATE - March 2015 - Still not a mark on this ring! Looks just like the day I bought it.
