Mark has diamonds in his wedding band...if that's what you mean.

But if you meant like a single diamond, similar to a "traditional" ering...no, thats not his style at all.

No, my dh wouldn't be caught dead with a diamond of any sort on!

He's not into jewelry AT ALL.  He just wears his wedding band and doesn't own any other items, not even a watch.

No.  He won't wear jewelry, period.  He doesn't even like his wedding ring but wears it out of fear of homicide.  It is a boring 6mm brushed titanium band.  "A Manly band."

What can I say- I am happy he doesn't share in my love for pretty things... but doesn't deprive me either.  Granted I have no interest in all the $$ he spends on bikes and other gear for his triathlons either.

Yep mine would. 

He has tiny diamonds in his wb and is already dreaming up how he could wear his dad's 2.3 carat fancy yellow diamond.

I know a good way to set it...in something for me! haha

He wouldn't wear it in a traditional setting but because his dad wears a lot of diamonds, he thinks that when he gets older he'd wear them too.

Mmm...huge fancy yellow diamond.  Not fair!

Nope. He actually inherited one with a huge (for a man's ring) diamond and he gave the diamond to me for my engagement ring I wanted to reset the ring with a gemstone, and he said "Why bother? I'm never going to wear a ring with a gemstone." Haha

For a recent anniversary, I had a small diamond burnished set in my DH's wedding band.  At first, he was willing to have it set inside the band, but when I saw the little sparkler, he changed his mind.  I sometimes catch him, hand outstretched, looking at his bling.  I think, however, that is about pushing his limit.  He did buy a Tag Link, this summer.  It's very manly

Yes, he's got a few.  Two with small stones and one is his engagement ring that has a .30 pt. diamond in it.

Absolutely not. But he's the furthest thing from fancy I know.

I was on Pearlman's one night browsing and DH walked by and saw this ring. He loves it and wants one someday, "When I'm an old lawyer." LOL. So - yes, he would.

Not a chance! Convincing him to wear a ring was hard enough. He wears his big Breitling and that's it.

No. But I know you'd wear an eternity on your pinky. Yes, that finger with the extra-long nail.

My husband will and does. His wedding band has a row of .75ct round diamonds! I wanted to make sure I got to look at bling when playing with his hands too. I considered buying him an Army ring with a diamond for his right hand too, though I'm not sure he'd wear it!

Yes, he'd like one. I hope to have a sapphire/diamond ring made for him in the next couple of years. Wink has a sapphire & diamond ring I like the style of with bezel set stones. :)

Nope, and given that I proposed to him, gods know I tried! He turned out to be surprisingly picky about what he would wear, but the diamond was a no way, Jose, kind of a thang.

BF wouldn't be caught dead in most jewelry, let alone something that *gasp* sparkled. That's okay, though. I'm not sure I could handle a guy with better bling than me!

Mr.2Artists might be willing to wear a band with tiny stones set into it if the design was really well done, interesting and unique. His feelings on that have evolved over time.

My Dad on the other hand would for sure but my Mom is not particularly fond of big diamonds on men or should I say on her man.

I don't mind diamonds on guys if done tastefully. They deserve to have a little fun too.

Absolutely not. I think he's in the mindset that the only acceptable stuff for a man to wear is a plain wedding band and maybe a small chain with a simple religious pendant (tucked in the shirt, not worn outside). He thought that two-tone gold or tungsten was too much!
