Your Wedding Band, and Your Rolex...

[USMCsilver]

Let me be the first to say that I've never been big on "blingy" wedding bands.

When I got married ~7 years ago, I got a nice platinum/18k band and wore it for a long time, back then, all I had was a couple TT Seikos. I was at Sam's Club one day about two years later, and they had a cool 14k band for next to nothing, so I picked it up...

Well, in about March of this year, I got a tungsten carbide Movado Valor watch. It was sweet, but I wanted a band to match. So, I got a tungsten carbide band. It accented the watch nicely, as well as other stainless watches. I have since not worn the watch due to the new aquisition of my GMT.

The other night I was on a eBay Live auction and saw something that was too unique not to own. It has to be one of the coolest men's rings I think I've ever seen. So, I just had to have it. I figured that since I was gonna get an 18k/SS Rolex in the near future, I'd "need" a two-tone ring to go with it. Yeah, I know I had one already, but this thing just "sang" to me!

So, what's your take? Keep it simple, stupid, or since it's something that's always worn, why not have something cool?

Here it is -- 14k with ~0.5 carats:
