I wouldn't even wear a wedding band if I didn't need to but I like being married so ring and watch it is.

Any other jewelry looks too much IMO

I wish you could too.

Best decision I've ever made. And that was over 30 years ago.

I used to wear a white gold bracelet on my right wrist, a stainless ring on my right pinky, a white gold ring with onyx on my left pinky, and a watch.

One day I just realized it was too much and wasn't for me anymore. Now I am down to just a watch and a wedding ring (platinum seems to match my SS watches great). I may wear some of the old stuff again, but there are no short or long term plans for that.

Are men's rings with Rolex out of style...?

I don't think so...

My dad had the same ring as the last two in your picture and it is very nice and will always stay in style. My dad wore the 16808 gold sub in the 80's and 90's

I would refine that to a watch and a Vikings Superbowl ring... so basically just a watch.

I only wear one ring, my wedding ring. I am not much for diamonds myself but that's me, if you like it you should wear it.

I lost my original wedding band, but I do wear my fathers diamond ring when getting dressed up. It's up to the individual; I like to see nice rings on other people, but I find them bothersome on myself.

I just look at heirlooms as keepsakes. My grandfather left me a beautiful ebony and gold cane, but you won't see me busting that out with a top hat and tails, either.

Either way, just wear what you like.
I thought we agreed Tormund would look simply marvellous walking along in a top hat and cane swinging. As GOT is now delayed to July we need something to pass the time.

We did, but you forget I look like Jon Snow, not Tormund.

No rings for me.

A large diamond on an ornate gold setting is a statement. If you need to ask whether the ring is appropriate you probably aren't in the right place to rock it.

The ring looks great. I feel one should wear what makes them happy. Just like your choice of watches, shoes, or clothes, if the jewelry smiles at you then wear it. I think rings go great with a watch, bracelets too IMO.


Aloha, Tim
