My (male) wedding band has arrived from E-Wedding Bands. Your thoughts?

I like the first one! Go with what’s the most comfortable!

I prefer the first one, 5mm. I think it looks modern and current.

The 5mm was certainly too big at 9. I think a 5mm at 8.75 will be perfect.

The 6mm at 8.75 feels a bit too tight.

Just sucks to send back and forth. It cost ~$30 to send it back the first time.

Oh well!

My vote is for the 6mm. The original 5mm looks a bit thin relative to the size of your hand.
I have the exact 5mm from them but my hand is smaller than yours (I wear a medium glove size at work). Sounds like size 9 is the winner at 6mm. I feel your dilemma about sizing as I ordered 4 rings at 2 different sizes and width between comfort vs. classic fit. Had to absorbed the return shipping fees, but glad I did it. The current 15% discount is great to keep trying out and find the best fit.

The unfortunate thing is the latest ring was purchased at their 25% Memorial Day sale.

Hope they can match that on the replacement.

I vote for the 5mm band, I think it looks more elegant.

I like the 5mm. I'm a man, and that's what I would get (if that makes any difference at all).

I think its personal taste. My DH is a size 10 and likes his 9 mm wide band. But, like PP, we bought bands of several widths in silver for him to wear before he made a final decision. He would not like a domed outside as it felt "weird" between his fingers. He also preferred the lighter feeling of titanium.

He went with titanium, but of those on the platinum options, he'd personally go for this one.

Like @rockysalamander's guy, I too prefer titanium. It's cheap and takes abuse, which I think is good. To be "fancy" I do like this particular band with the 2 rings on a single side instead of being symmetrical.

But honestly, I'm pretty damn simple. I like beveled edges the best, and for a guy's ring think the darker metal and more beefy appearance is better. Always get the comfort fit style.

so, is there really no benefit to paying up for the Platinum?

if that's the case, i have no issue with titanium but i was having a hard time finding the pros and cons of each metal.

Another vote for the 5mm I think it looks great I like everything about it, IMO the 6 looks too bulky on you.
