I purchased this ring after 14 years of marriage to the loveliest woman in the world. I've never been a huge fan of yellow gold but we got what we could afford at the time. This ring is a choice that I made without the same financial binders that once dictated our choice. This is something more suited to me.

It is heavy, eye catching and seemingly indestructible. It also make a statement (if only to me) that my marriage is something that will not be formed or rather deformed by things that happen around me. (Gold being a much softer metal that often becomes misshapen through the years.) The change in material seems to reflect an even stronger resolve that "This will last!" A statement that I am proud to make.

I also have what I call acidic skin. I react to cheap metals and the results are somewhat painful for me and destructive to the (usually a time piece) item worn. This is not the case with this ring.
I really like the look of this piece and I am surprised by how much I enjoy the 8 mm wide band. (I think my original was 6 mm wide.)

Amazon delivered this ring at a price that was almost unbelievably less than all of the well known jewelry stores in the area. $300.00 to $400.00 in some cases!

Buy it. Wear it. Monetarily; a small investment but it should be a very proud statement and I believe you'll enjoy having it on as well.
