I got this ring due to my original wedding ring just about getting destroyed during my work. I had heard about the durability of tungsten but i have to say i am impressed. My old ring went 3 weeks at my job and was soo scratched and bent it was terrible to wear. This new ring has gone the first couple of weeks and does not even have a scratch! I would say the look is very similar to platinum or white gold. I would also like to point out i found the exact same ring at a local store for +200. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a good bang for your buck ring that has most little maintenance possible.
