Tungsten Men Ring
Do platinum and Tungsten work well together in a ring?

I have been looking online at Men’s wedding bands. I’m interested in something Made of Tungsten, but with platinum included.

It appears online that there are several choices available, but every jewelry store (I’ve visited more than 10 now) tell me that the metals don’t work well together and thus are not used together in jewelry.

Anyone have any clear answers and a good source?

They're both on the flat side - they don't shine well. They've been industrial metals for years. They've become popular in jewelry lately because they've become very expensive. Silver and gold both are much shinier.

I don't know why they aren't used together, but they are very similar in appearance, so you may not get the desired impact.

Carbide vs. Titanium

Titanium rings look great new and generally less expensive. It is quite common that people mistakenly believe that the two metals are either the same or equal. Titanium is a metal, but not extreme loads such as tungsten carbide. Over time, scratch titanium rings and so lose their polish needs to be reworked. Tungsten alone (not carbide) is also similar to titanium. Without the hard metal they do not win by its extreme hardness and durability. Only connected as a tungsten alloy with carbon, he turns into hard metal, the strongest all metals. Tungsten carbide is a harder metal than titanium, very light, so it looks more durable and better.

Carbide vs. Gold & Platinum

Traditionally, gold or platinum were the only ways that people would be buying a wedding ring, or ring, symbolizing something important. Tungsten carbide has become a worthy replacement for these precious metals because of its brilliant mirror finish as everlasting polish and elastic. Gold and platinum rings are also very bright but fading fast and scratch very easily, over time, gold and platinum, also can begin to be causing the ring chain "untrue" (not round). This nasty little side effect is often the culprit behind the people not able to remove their wedding rings and they have to have to cut off. Tungsten carbide rings able in an emergency by a qualified professional as easy, if not better away than gold rings.

How much would you like tungsten ring

Since tungsten carbide rings are fat and fit, we recommend that if you try to decide your size that you use the standard narrow-finger sizers, regardless of the width of the ring. This is fit for the shape of the inside of the rings account. Please note that your fingers swell and shrink depending on the time of day and temperature. To be absolutely sure to make your size, we recommend that you consider that your decisions with. On average, many people find when they are happy with a ring, which is a half size smaller than what they are for large ones. This is due to accommodate the fit of the Rings.

What Tungsten Rings ? look

Sometimes people will ask: "What do your wedding rings look like?" The most popular Tungsten Ring styles mirror polish. The rings are a glossy, reflective surface that is polished forever. They are slightly darker than platinum, but close enough in color are often confused. Some less expensive rings are dark or granular (not recommended). If you are confused by the appearance of a certain ring, simply email the seller and ask them more detailed pictures or more To send descriptions.
