fusion-matic looks bad-ass.

It's alright, I like the darker titanium though.

I love yellow gold, my ex bought me a gorgeous white diamond gold wedding ring and its pretty but it would have looked so much better in gold!

Kinda ugly, in my opinion.

It looks like they raided a construction site, stole a bunch of bolts, and glued on some crappy tiny diamonds to'em.

Hell, are those even diamonds? They kinda look like mini-rivets or screws.

I like it. It's even better for watches.

Looks like jewelry the band Distrubed would wear. And that's not a good thing.

Some of it is okay. My boyfriend and I thought a titanium wedding band for him would be nice. Its nice and light and really durable. Good for someone who constantly gets his fingers banged up by tools and other such heavy objects while working.

The ones with the rivets and the screw-looking decorations are horrid.

Platinum is where it's at. Especially when it's a nipple ring.

Some of it didn't look bad, but there's no way I'm paying more than 30 bucks for something poured in a cast and has the same metalic make up as my 10 speed frame or ladder.

Shit, my ladder didn't cost more than 75 bucks ... and there's more metal in that!

I wanted to get my boyfriend some... he didn't like it though. :weird:

I don't care much for gold, and as one of my ears has a 6 gauge ring in it.. I wear stainless steel already. In ancient times rare or special metals were worn as jewelery, I like that idea. I personally would love to own a titanium chain. Platinum is cool too.

I like it. My boy has a titanium ring he bought in FL a couple years ago. It's still in perfect condition.

Dude, titanium is hawt. What other jewelry can you stop a bullet with?

They were alright... I have to echo Jesae that the ones with the screws for decorations are horrid. They look like something a crazed obsessive engineer made in his basement, and would wear to pretend he's married or something.

I don't much care for the jewelry on that site, but I've seen stuff I like... and yeah, Jake's wedding band is titanium. He loves it because he can't even feel it, and it doesn't get in the way when he's doing jock-boy stuff all day at work. It was also cheap (around $120, I think), so if he loses it, it won't be hell to replace.

The best thing about it? It was such a small part of our wedding-band budget that I got to get a diamond wedding band instead of a plain white gold one :D

Looks like the cubic zirconia of platinum.

Not to my taste, but that doesn't mean anything as I'm not much of a jewelry person.

We buy a LOT of titanium at my work. I would like to know what grade they are using. Without a reference to a spec it's impossible to tell the quality of the metal in their jewelry.

If I was going to buy jewelry, and it was much cheaper, I would totally buy some of that stuff.

Love it... though I am more of a platinum gal, it all looked pretty slick to me.

My brother might be getting titanium in 5 foot strips so we can mold parts for or cars. That and he got ahold of a huge roll of carbon fiber w00t.

Well, if you saw the movie "The Abyss" you would realize how incredibly practicle titanium wedding bands are...I mean, when the super heavy compartment doors try to pressure seal, and your hand is stuck in it, you will need that titanium ring to save you.

LOL that was a very interesting movie indeed.

Anyway, titanium, when a high quality and done tastefully, makes nice jewelry, and yes, especially men's wedding bands.

My engagement ring is platinum, my wedding band is white gold with teeeeeeny diamonds in it.

I saw a show last night on TLC where they made an artificial rib out of titanium for a boy who was crooked...he was literally bent over to once side in the shape of a C. It was amazing. The rib was notched so they (doctors) could increase the rib every six months as the boy grew up. It helped him stand erect and lead a somewhat normal life.

Some of the jewelerly looks nice but some of it looks like something a punk rocker/heavy metal rocker would wear.
