Switch It Up: Timeless and Current Wedding Band Varieties for Men

By Christine Lila Davies


Some experts who watch trends in men's platinum jewelry as well as other types suggest that the interest in decorative pieces to accent apparel is influenced by the age factor more than anything else. There are also cultural trends that affect the male interest in items like necklaces or bracelets and have provided a way for a young man to identify to certain groups.

More interest is shown in the male consumer group from the ages of 18-45 than in any other age group. Sales promotions are generally targeted in that direction while attempting to retain the typical consumer group of one time buyers for groom's rings and everyday watches. Mainstream men's silver jewelry has not been a broad trend until signs of wider appeal are burgeoning on the horizon of the market.

Trends in men's platinum jewelry have been relegated largely to cultural overtones that influence who will purchase what. For example, up until the past several years, the increased wear of platinum medallions and hip hop style decorations pigeonholed a certain trend of 'gangsta' identification among young males. Another trend was seen in the stereotypical, flashy jewelry of rock stars and counter culture influences.

If the special woman in your life gives you a piece of jewelry, that is definitely a 'hot' reason to be wearing jewelry. Every time you wear the jewelry she gave you, it will make you think about her and your special relationship. She will also find it 'hot' that she gave you something that you are wearing with pride!

Many couples choose the metal for their bands by matching it to their engagement ring. However, don't feel bound to this. A bride can choose to wear her engagement ring on her right hand, and wedding ring on the left. Also, each of you can wear a similar style in different metals. Consider which metals each of you wear regularly - is most of her jewelry silver? Is his watch gold? This makes all the difference and these simple guidelines will help you make the right choice.
