Side by Side Comparison of: Metals Jewelry vs MJ Metals Jewlery

APPEARANCE: In terms of color, this piece very closely resembles white gold. It is only a half shade or so darker in hue, but this is only noticeable in a side-by-side comparison. In reality, no one will know this isn't white gold. The ring looks and feels substantial and expensive. (NOTE: if you want the "white gold" look, be sure to buy WHITE tungsten, not regular tungsten. Regular tungsten is a darker gray.)COMFORT: Looks and wears like a true comfort fit with smooth, rounded edges.DURABILITY: Two and a half months after our wedding, there is not a single scratch on this ring, even when viewed under magnification. It looks absolutely brand new. Despite the fact that tungsten is naturally more brittle than gold alloy and other metals used in jewelry-making, so far the ring has stood up to what I would consider an above average level of wear and tear without breaking.PRICE: Ridiculously affordable. Just under $18 as opposed to $300-400+ for good quality white gold (that scratches and needs polishing once a year)? A no-brainer. Plus, you get to skip the worries that accompany wearing an expensive piece of jewelry. If you ever lost this ring, replacing it would be a breeze. Eighteen bucks and two Prime shipping days later, voila! Brand new ring, negligible damage to your wallet.WOULD I BUY AGAIN? Without hesitation. We couldn't be happier with this purchase.

I bought this 8.5 size ring for my son in law to wear at work. His original ring was scratched due to it being gold. The quality of this ring is amazing. No one can tell the difference between this less expensive ring and his $700.00 ring. Although I ordered the same size ring as his original wedding band, this ring is much bigger. I plan on ordering a size 8 to see if this will fit better than the 8.5. Seriously, my daughter can not believe that she did not just buy this ring for their ceremony. She would have saved a ton of money. Shipping was amazingly fast. It was delivered to the door in 48 hours! It l shines like white gold but is very strong and will not scratch like his gold ring. Very pleased with the ring, shipping, and a follow up email from the seller asking if I was satisfied with my purchase. Seriously, this is wonderful customer service, excellent quality, and timely delivery....why would anyone shop else where for a wedding band! I did not post picture just in case I return this ring for a smaller size and asked my son in law not to wear it yet.

If you are looking for a very traditional looking tungsten ring that looks very similar to a white gold wedding band then this is what you need. This has a very high polished look and a solid heavy feel to it. I looked at some of these types of rings in stores and they typically run around $100. I believe that this same exact ring at a retailer would be around that same price. I recommend that you cut out the middleman and save yourself a lot of money. I would say the only drawback is that tungsten is a little bit heavier than the other metals which for some people is a bonus and not a drawback.If you have not yet researched tungsten then the main benefits are the price, the extremely scratch resistant nature, and the ability to remove during a emergency because it can shatter relatively easily. The main selling point to me was the very scratch resistant nature. Many other metals scratch fairly easily so they will not look immaculate after months and years of wear.The drawbacks to tungsten are the heavier weight, the fact that tungsten rings can shatter if dropped from about 7 feet above the ground onto concrete, and for some people the lack of prestige because it is much cheaper to produce tungsten.

This is an absolutely fantastic ring. It has a nice heft to it and looks almost identical to my white 14k gold wedding ring (see pic). Also, it seems well built and compared to my white gold ring, it is more resistant to scratching for 1/15th of the price.

I'm so happy with this purchase! My fiancé and I were really disappointed by with all the overpriced wedding bands at the mall, so we decided to look online. This white tungsten band is perfect! The price is unbelievable and the quality is great. I love that it matches my white gold band too. It is slightly darker than white gold, but it's pretty darn close.

I love my new ring! It has the look and feel of white gold--very shiny and smooth. I have been wearing this daily - for work, workouts, walking the dogs etc and the ring still looks brand new with no scratches. Highly recommend.

Slight blueish hue. Bought to wear daily instead of my custom made wedding ring. This Tungsten ring is lighter than my 13g white gold band. Also it's slimmer and much more doomed than pictured. I would say it's true to fit. I have a 3/4 size in wedding band and ordered a 1/2, which fits snug, so I would say its true to size. 5/5 if it 100% resembled picture. Also included a nice small pouch, which now holds my white gold band.

Nice ring, especially for the price. It does have that white gold shine to it. And it's bright, not the dull gray of regular tungsten. It runs a little large, in my opinion. I normally wear an11, but this was quite a bit large. Due to the price, I thought "what the heck?" and ordered a 10.5. It is still a little large, but will probably be fine when summer comes around. For the winter months, I am ordering a 10. We'll see how it works out. I am returning the 11, though. That is not the reason for 4 stars. I want to wait a few months and see if it holds up. If it does, I will bump this to five stars as it really is a great looking ring.

This ring is great looking! It definitely has that 'white gold' look and I really like the high polish. The ring feels comfortable with its rounded edges, facilitating an easy-on/easy-off fit and all-day wearability.I have slight reservations about the ring's weight. It's definitely got some good heft to it, and feels a bit bulky. A lot of people will appreciate this attribute because the ring feels significant. I'm not so sure. Perhaps to get the durability of tungsten, you have to accept its bulk... (You decide.)

These rings are great but I wish they would make a slightly less domed design. The white tungsten finish is beautiful, more understated than cobalt chrome (but without a hint of the usual tungsten grey) and actually more resistant to scratching, to my shock.If you buy a ring like this that's wider than probably 5mm, you will want to add a half size to your regular ring size. I normally wear a 7 but have a couple of widths of these in 7.5 for days when I'm retaining water. That's the beauty of this metal -- you can have several widths and a couple of different sizes without spending a fortune. Aside from the fact that this stuff doesn't scratch like either gold or silver or even stainless steel.

This is the ring that I wear around the house in place of my wedding band set so that I don't ruin the beauty of my wedding set with menial tasks. This ring is simple but holds up well against household chores, heavy lifting, yard work, heavy duty and dirty tasks, etc. I wear it every time I'm at home because I don't want to accidentally have one of the gems in my wedding set be knocked out or fall out due to the abuse that can happen every day in the home or yard (even washing dishes can ruin a ring set by making the stones dull and wearing the plated polish thin-or even scratching the malleable gold or silver) --I know two women that this has happened to and their wedding sets had to be replaced because the stones fell out and became lost. So, I took the precaution of purchasing this ring as a household replacement and it's great. No scratches, nicks, dings, bent areas, and it still shines as brightly as the day it arrived. I've been wearing it for months with no problems. I only gave 4 stars because it does the job I purchased it for and I like it for that reason, but as a woman I can't say I "love it" (a 5 star rating) because I like a bit of sparkle-that's just me. If you're a woman that prefers simple, or a man looking for something durable, I highly recommend this ring. :)

I misplaced my wedding ring and bought this as a (hopefully) temporary place holder . The price was definitely right, and it shines beautifully, much like my mother's white gold wedding band. The comfort fit is great, very smooth, the band slides on the finger well. This ring is very heavy however, it really is a substantial piece of jewelry! So it might not be a good choice for those with more dainty fingers, but especially for men who want a solid feeling band, you will like this ring.

doesn't look like the picture. more like chrome. but it is strong against scratches. some reviews say you must ask for half a size bigger since they run small. My experience was exactly the opposite; and I've ordered 3, one half a size bigger, which I lost in the first week, one my size. which I lost too, and one half a size smaller which is still with me 18 months or so later.

I read reviews saying this ring ran large so order a size down if you're a quarter size. That was wrong ... I can barely get the ring on my finger. I recommend going up if you're a quarter size. Returning this ring.

Looks great and feels substantial since it has some weight to it. Sizing is accurate. But it feels a bit bulky and pushes into the surrounding fingers so it's uncomfortable and we'll be looking for another ring after all. For ~$20 it was worth a try and a nice back up ring.

I bought this white tungsten carbide ring for my boyfriend because we got each other promise rings and he absolutely loves it. he wears it everyday. This ring is soft, and shiny, he gets compliments. he never takes it off, it's durable, and doesn't scratch/ i i honestly dont think he's taken it off since i gave it to him for christmas. Definitely worth the money. it's a nice clean, and smart purchase.

Not scratch proof as tungsten would be, but it doesn't seem to want to shatter, as is common with tungsten, so I don't think it is tungsten.

I got this ring for my fiance as his wedding ring. We noticed after a couple of days after getting it that it looks like there is a stain in the background of the ring. We are getting married in a week. I would send it back but afraid with getting a new one wouldn't get here in time.

Didn't fit perfectly on my finger

I had to update this review. My husband was highly allergic to this ring. His finger is raw, bloody, and pretty much ripped to shreds from being so itchy. If your husband is allergic to nickel do NOT get this ring. We didn't know he would react this way.On a positive note, seems high-quality and is super heavy and sturdy.

Bought this as my husband's wedding band, was too big. Though I ordered a size 9, I took it to a jeweler and it was sized at 9 3/4. Not true to size.

The picture makes this ring look very light silver. Once received, we noticed it was very dark, almost charcoal in color. Not the color we expected. For the money, it would make a great ring row wear while traveling abroad. It's heavy and feels nice, just not at all the color we were going for.

Very cheap looking, strong and durable yes, but didn't look all that great like picture

I've had a tungsten carbide ring before and it held up to abuse for YEARS and never got a scratch or chip. I just got this ring and I thought it looked great. However, it fell to the tile floor while taking it off and it chipped in two places. Requesting a refund on this for sure.

Very disappointed in the quality of this ring. It lasted just under a year before cracking and ultimately falling to pieces. Given that it is a tungsten ring, I'm shocked that it broke.

Dropped onto tile the third day I had it. Tile was fine, and somehow the tungsten chipped. CHIPPED. In two places. I can't understand how this could even happen if I was trying to damage the ring. Something very wrong with the fabrication.

I had this for less then a week and there is already scratches all over the ring, I work in a office setting so i really don't know why this is getting scratched up, i would hate to see this being worn while doing a lot of manual labor.

this ring is very low quality, it broke in less than one week. It was suppose to be very strong an anti-scrash.

Did not like the color so returned the ring,

This ring got excellent reviews and I would have probably rated it higher if I actually received it. I got a small jewelry bag in a ziploc bag and NO RING!
