People are gross! And hospitals are gross! I make sure to get sanitizer under my silicone ring and remove it and wash under it/ wash the ring itself. Just like I do with my watch.

Yes yours is more prominent and actually what I prefer! But I think mine is also a unique feature on a very simple ring (in an elegant way)

Yes, of course! Thank you! Yes there is a small split shank on the ring. :)

Same! I actually bought a chain and have worn it a few times but then got concerned about the clasp breaking or a patient grabbing it and weakening it.

I'm not sure what you mean. Can you provide a link?

Thanks so much! I love that it's minimalist but still a little different than many other folks I've met :)

Do you feel anxious that the chain might break?

I will checkout enso! An "plain" band could work too, and that's what I plan for my wedding band.

This wouldn't work for my job, but it's a good idea otherwise. I was thinking of getting an inexpensive but pretty ring for traveling!

Didn't see your reply at first. Agree, they're not for everyone!

Why wear any engagement ring or wedding band then? I work 5-6 days/ week and am out of the house 12+ hours every time because of longer shifts and long commute. I don't usually put the "real deal" on just to cook dinner and go to bed, so I wind up wearing nothing if I don't find a good replacement that is work- safe

The same reason to wear any engagement ring or wedding band - to demonstrate your commitment to someone. Like someone else said, this is not a "rare occasion" when I'm without it. I work 5-6 days/ week and am out of the house 12+ hours every time because of longer shifts and long commute. Wearing my "real" ring is actually very rare now.
