When my husband and I got married years ago, he insisted on buying me a fancy-schmancy wedding band with diamonds all around it. It's very pretty, but I am not a fancy ring person, and the ring got very easily scratched up as I worked with my hands. I was nervous wearing it every day because it cost more money than I was comfortable with and that always makes me feel antsy: what if I lose it, or get robbed? I ordered this ring so I could have a wedding band to wear every day, that would stand up to abuse, but wouldn't be a big deal if I lost it.

My ring still looks shiny and beautiful after a year! There's not a scratch on it, and I worked a manual labor job where I used a lot of tools and in general put it through quite a beating. It's comfortable, looks great, and I really like the width: it shows up very easily from far away, which is exactly what I wanted. It is very easy to look at me and see that I am married :) Mission accomplished! I would definitely recommend this ring. When my husband ended up needing a new wedding band, I ordered him the men's version of this, and now we match!
