subject: Does Your Man Need A New Mens Wedding Band For Valentines Day? [print this page] Whenever February 14th rolls around, women expect to be showered with expensive gifts, taken out to dinner, or at least have a dozen roses delivered with a romantic note attached. Not that every woman actually gets this, but it is probably her hearts desire. Ask a guy what he wants for Valentines Day and chances are hell tell you I dont need anything or I have absolutely no idea. Fortunately, the average woman is usually intuitive enough to find something that he would like to receive, even if he didnt know he wanted nor needed it. Heres an idea. How about buying him a brand new mens wedding band for Valentines Day?
Once a man finds something he likes, he rarely changes it or replaces it, especially something as sacred and meaningful as a wedding ring. But sometimes a new mens wedding ring is a necessity. If you look at the left ring finger of any man whos been married more than 20 years, then their ring is probably rather plain looking, a little beat up, and made from yellow or white gold. Not that theres anything wrong with a traditional mens wedding ring; but the latest styles are a lot more exciting.
These days, a popular trend in mens wedding bands is to choose a ring made from a strong industrial metal like tungsten carbide, titanium or cobalt. Even stainless steel has become a fashionable choice in mens wedding rings. If your man has spent the past 20 years or more wearing the same gold ring, then he may be ready for a change. There are more styles than ever to choose from, including brushed, polished and hammered textures, engraved, grooved, carved or woven patterns, carbon fiber inlays, two-toned rings and much, much more.
You may be thinking that a new mens wedding band would be too expensive to buy as a Valentines gift but surprisingly, many of the newer designs made from industrial metals are very affordable. For under $30, you can buy your husband a handsome 8mm titanium mens wedding ring with a ridged and polished finish. Or, you can choose a highly polished 7mm tungsten ring with bold gold-tone grooves for under $50. Even the trendiest 9mm black ceramic and grooved tungsten ring shouldnt set you back more than $60 or $70. But the best part about the industrial metals is their natural strength and durability. Unlike gold, these rings will not wear down. They are easy to maintain and 100% hypoallergenic too.
Because metals like titanium, cobalt and tungsten are so hard, they are far more scratch resistant than traditional mens wedding bands. However, this can also make them harder to resize, so it helps to know your husbands current ring size. You can find this out by wrapping a piece of paper around his finger while hes sleeping and measuring it against the sizing charts at your favorite online jeweler. When it comes time to order the ring, why not add a personalized inscription on the inside that recognizes Valentines Day 2011?
Giving your husband a brand new mens wedding band for Valentines Day will do more than make him look great; it will express your endless love and devotion to him, and let him know how much you still value being his partner in life.
