Cool looking but it wouldn't last two minutes on my fingers.

When we shopped for ours I just said "give me the strongest thing you've got" . . . The Titanium ring is good, has kept its shape perfectly . . . I did have to file some weld-splatter off of it a few months back, though.  (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/tongue.gif)

Hmm I was looking at Titanium ring though one jeweller said it wouldn't last well..colour and polish rather than shape..said he would never order another one in, also you can't resize Titanium rigs..?  Also the ones I've tried so far tend to be a bit chunky for my delicate little fingers..(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/lol.gif)

Looking at sandblasted Palladium now as I don't really need such a tough ring sitting behind a desk or steering wheel (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/confused.gif)

Kinda like this..

Yet to find one I like in a shop though..

Still not ruled out Titanium either..

Mine's just dull finished . . or was . . . bits of it are semi-polished from metal-to-metal abrasion now !

No, Beaverbrooks took 4 attempts to get mine spot-on . . . they just kept ordering new ones in each time. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/lol.gif)

On the plus side it was only £65 !!! - I said I felt cheated as Sammy's was ten times that !  (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/can.gif)

Still ain't got my pick-up truck. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/smirk.gif)
