Thought I'd share my FI's wedding band which arrived yesterday! There have been a lot of folks looking at Tungsten, so hope this helps...
We looked at SO many options, both B&M and online. Artcarved, Trew Tungsten, Boone Rings etc etc. There aren't too many original designs in Tungsten out there, and after awhile, they all started to look the same. Then we found www.tungstenpride.com .
Their stuff is all customizable, so you like the design on one band, but the shape of another, you can do that. We were going to design something, but decided on what they already had, and we are happy with it. The turnaround time does take three weeks, but they were EXTREMELY prompt about timing. They also provide free shipping via USPS priority mail and have excellent service (you easily talk to a human being when you call...and it seems to be the same gal who works out of MN.)
Just a note for those who are looking at Tungsten...it is darker than what you see photographed on their site. The "black ice" is actually quite black from what I have heard, not grey. You can see from the stock photo of my FI's ring that the IRL it is much more of a gunmetal gray. Ring price was $399
Anyway, thought I'd post my experience with them, and that we are VERY happy with the ring. They do quarter sizes too!!
ETA: We ordered 7mm, although I think the stock may be 8mm. You can order whatever thickness you want.
