What's the deal with them, cool, classy or archaic?

I mean this...

At what age does a cygnet ring become a swan ring?

About the time it becomes attractive, which is what the OP was already asking.

Rings are just wrong IMHO. Unless they have the language of Mordor in Elvish script that becomes visible when heated.

Others may have different views.

I don't even like wearing a wedding ring.

I haven't worn rings for years; even my wedding ring had to be cut off before surgery once. That said, I don't think they look bad at all. Especially if they have some significance. Otherwise they can look like tat.

Men are allowed 2 and only 2 pieces a jewellery, a watch and a wedding ring. There is 1 exception to this and this is that you are permitted to wear a pendant, likely a crucifix if you are on a road bike, climbing a mountain, it's 30 degrees and your jersey in undone.

Anything more is simply vulgar.

Loads of my collegues wear them. With a couple of exceptions, they're also the ones with old volvos and houses that have their own postcode ๐Ÿ™‚

Combine one with a nice pair of red chinos and you're good to go.

I wouldn't but I have no problem with those that do, it's a handmedown usually isn't it? Plain wedding band and a watch for me. What's worse is a chap with a diamond wedding ring I've seen a few of those recently.

Back in the 80s in my jeweller days i used to get 25p for each one i made, my record was 50 in 45 minutes, the basic sygnet shape was stamped out and then i would solder them, size them and buff them up ready to be polished, happy days.
Did wonder where all the bloody things went tbh.

Darling, it's not a case of being the fashion Taliban, it's simply a case of helping someone make a sensible decision.
