Aside from a wedding ring, does anyone else wear more than that on their hands?

I went to the art museum today. There is an exhibit of finger rings. This is an art form I am interested in.

Pinky rings and other finger rings on a dude isn't a good look. My opinion.

I have my Dad’s wedding band that has a couple diamonds channel set in it. It was the only thing fancy he ever had and it always looked odd on him because it just didn’t fit him. My Mother bought it for him a few years before he passed. I wear it on weekends sometimes doubled up with my wedding band.

I never wear jewelry due to my job, aircraft mechanic. Usually when we go out my wife brings me my ring to wear, it’s a white gold band. I wore a silicone ring for a while until some douche pushed the envelope, because even those aren’t allowed. So I stopped wearing it after that. I’m not a jewelery person. I can’t be. I used to wear a chain and cross also. I lost mine sadly. I need to get another one.

Gents,

Only a simple gold wedding band.

Jewelry, for men, is obviously a very personal choice, but I have thought about getting a nice watch, perhaps when I retire.

Warmest Regards,
Richard

That was a very thoughtful response. Thank you.

When I was younger I used to wear 3 or 4 rings. My favorite ring, an 18k gold band with a sapphire that my dad bought for me in Italy was lifted from my hotel room years ago - that really bummed me out. A few years later I had my watches (among many other things of great value) stolen from my home. After that I sort of cooled on the idea of trying to keep track of extraneous things. Presently I only wear my wedding band.

Don’t care for jewelry myself, I find it distracting and always messing with it.
