What do you prefer? Silver or Gold or whatever other jewellery you might wear?

I personally prefer Silver but was wondering why so many prefer Gold - is it just an image thing or do people prefer the look and feel?

Unfortunately its not really up to us I dont think. Er 'indoors is absolutely indignant that I wear one if we get married, I am not too keen.

Only acceptable piece of mans jewellery is a watch IMHO.

Wonder if there's anyother reason for this?
But I'm with you, hate nearly all jingle jangle jewelery, if me and the girl ever tie the knot it'll be a wedding watch for me

Thread wasn't "What metal" it was "silver or gold"

Gold for me

Unless we're moving on to what metal where I'll pick "heavy"

I totally agree with you there CZ. Money can be better spent elsewhere rather than on a bit of jewellery. I have a Storm watch which is Stainless Steel and a thick silver ring which my mum gave to me before she died. That's it really. I also have Storm ring which is see through - a bit different, but I rarely wear it.

I much prefer silver out of the two mentioned, but Platinum is my preference. My engagement ring is Platinum My everyday jewellery is all silver, I just don't like gold.

Fish refuses to wear a wedding ring when we tie the knot next year

With my marriage coming up, I have been told I will be wearing a wedding ring. However have been told I can take it off after the wedding day itself!

As reagrds silver or gold, gold every time. Some people do have an allergy to silver so can't wear it.

Snap - took me years to get used to wearing a watch even, and Mrs Gopher did not mind when I said no to a wedding ring.

I am one of those rare girlies who hates jewellery. Haven't had a ring on my finger for over 14 years. Have worn the occasional necklace at a posh do but cant really be bothered with it. Waste of money. My watch was free with Green Shield Stamps.

White gold for me, though it's just the wedding ring. In retrospect I wish I'd had a platinum WR, as geting the coating thing (nobium or whatever it is) put back on is a bit of a pita.

The watch is [looking at back] stainless. That's all.
