Since i got an e-ring my FI wanted one as well so i got him a tungsten ring, mostly b/c he used to do manual labor for a living. he has worn the ring for 2 years and not a scratch on it. but the ring did scratch my windshield , the window was fogging up and he used his hand to wipe it clean luckily its not deep but its about 10 inches long. As said before it can not be re-sized so that might be a problem. but i plan to get him a wedding band in white gold that will not be used for every day, he's not good at taking care of things like that, unless he gets fat and cant wear the tungsten one anymore.
