beautiful ring and correct size
Lifetime Warranty for Titanium and Tungsten Rings.
The details.
For Kiwi blokes who work outside or use their hands hard, titanium makes practical sense. It's lighter than you'd expect from something this tough, resistant to scratches, and hypoallergenic. Won't react to salt air, farm chemicals, or general outdoor use. The comfort-fit band sits well under gloves or after a day working stock. Low maintenance, long life. A sensible choice whether you're on a farm, a worksite, or just living an active life.
Living with the dark matte finish
The matte surface hides hairline marks tools and farm work tend to add. Rinse off salt, sweat, and dust after long days. Skip polishing cloths — they'll bring up shine in patches and ruin the even matte tone.
Sizing this flat-edge titanium band
Flat-edge feels wider than comfort-fit at the same width — size up half if between. Interior is curved for daily comfort. Use our free NZ sizer before ordering.
Matte vs polished titanium pick
This matte forgives scuffs that show on polished bands — better for outdoor work. Pick polished if it lives at a desk. Browse the titanium range to compare.
Q: Will the matte wear shiny?
A: Heavy palm use polishes high points over years, but the twin grooves stay matte. A bead-blast service restores it cheaply.
Q: Safe around farm chemicals?
A: Yes — titanium doesn't react to drench, fertiliser, or salt. A fresh-water rinse at day's end is enough.
Q: Do the grooves trap grit?
A: After stock work, sometimes. Soft toothbrush under warm water clears them in under a minute.

Great service, super fast delivery and the ring looks great!
My fiance' and I had been looking in stores to find a ring he liked, nothing stood out, we had an idea of his size from looking around, I stumbled across this website just from a Google search, ordering was easy and they have afterpay which makes it nice and easy to have that little extra to buy other things when it comes to planning a wedding!! delivery was speeding - love it!!
Great service agian. Thank you
Ring Is good but the Matt finish has marked quite easily
Caring for your Titanium ring
Titanium is about 45% lighter than steel but still corrosion-proof, so it shrugs off salt water, sweat, chlorine and household cleaners without tarnishing. Wash it once a week with warm water and a drop of dish soap, work a soft toothbrush around any inlays or grooves, then pat dry. The surface can pick up fine hairline scratches over time — these can be re-brushed with a green scotch-brite pad if you prefer the matte look, or polished out by any NZ jeweller for a small fee.
Remove the ring for heavy lifting, climbing or anything where the finger could be crushed, because titanium is harder to cut than gold and emergency staff will need bolt cutters or a diamond-tipped saw. Otherwise it is one of the most wearable metals — fully hypoallergenic, hypothermic-friendly (it warms to skin temperature quickly), and unaffected by the iodine-rich coastal air found across most of NZ.
Common questions about Titanium rings
Is titanium stronger than tungsten?
Titanium is tougher (it bends before it breaks) while tungsten is harder (it resists scratches but can shatter on impact). For a tradie or farmer who drops things, titanium is the safer choice; for someone chasing a permanent mirror polish, tungsten wins. Both outlast gold on a busy hand.
Can a titanium ring be resized in New Zealand?
Most NZ jewellers can resize a plain titanium band up or down by one half-size using a stretching mandrel, but rings with inlays, grooves or anodised colour generally cannot be resized. If you're between sizes, order the larger one — a sizing bead can always be added later.
Will titanium react with seawater or pool chlorine?
No. Titanium is the same alloy used in marine and surgical implants, so saltwater swimming, surf trips and chlorinated pools cause zero corrosion or discolouration. Just rinse with fresh water afterwards to stop salt crystals collecting under the band.
How heavy is a titanium ring compared to gold?
A typical 8mm titanium band weighs around 4–5 grams, versus 12–15 grams for the same shape in 9ct gold. Most NZ buyers describe it as feeling like "barely wearing a ring" — useful for office workers, gym-goers, and anyone not used to wearing jewellery.
Considering alternatives?
Titanium and tungsten rings are the two most-compared modern metals on this site. Titanium wins on weight, comfort and resizability; tungsten wins on shine retention and scratch resistance. Both are priced well below gold and ship free across NZ.
