Did my research and selected Tungsten as my metal of choice.  After laboring over which style to pick, I selected the 9mm width with the raised matte finish.  I was nervous about the rough center, as some reviewers have noted. It is not really that rough at all.  I was expecting much worse.  I got this as an alternative to my 5mm white gold ring that is 9 years old and extremely well worn.  I thought the width would be a big adjustment, but it isn't at all.  The ring looks great and is very comfortable.  It doesn't feel too wide or too heavy.  It shines nicely too, but isn't overly noticeable.  Overall, I am very happy with the ring, and Metal Masters got it to me on a Tuesday, when I ordered late Friday afternoon.  That's pretty darn good.  I will update after I've had the ring for a while to make sure the claims are true.
