Man jewelry

MsLsMsLs member
Does your man, or if you are a man do you, wear jewelry? If so what? Not talking about wedding bands here.
I'm a little ahead of the game because I dropped the ball last year but I want to get DH a piece that he will wear and possibly pass down to DS I'm also thinking something engraved just not sure whether ring, bracelet, necklace or watch.

    Cuff links are a no go because he has a billion.

     

  • Go for a watch.  I really don't think men wear anything else.

    I only like wedding rings and watches on men. Maybe a cool watch??

     

     

    yea I tend to agree but he said in passing that he wanted to get his ring engraved with DS birth date. So I'm kinda leaning towards a ring because his dad and brother both wear right hand rings. Also, I always get him watches so he already has 10 :) so I thought I might switch it up. Just curious if anyone else's DH wear rings

     

  • My husband normally wears two other rings besides his wedding band, his cross necklace, and one of many watches.  But he is one of the few men I know that look good with extra jewelry.  A ring is a great idea if his family already wears them.

    Thanks! Yea his brother wears a lot of jewelry too I think mostly because his wife is Italian and they tend to be more secure with wearing more. I know DH said he wouldn't wear a necklace so I think a ring is best. And like I said he has so many watches I feel it wouldn't be special unless I got a really, really nice one.

  • My baby daddy wore a dove necklace always. It actually was kinda hawt, nestled at the top of his chest hair. Shame... all that pretty, but kind of a DB :/

  • MH just wears his wedding band and his watch.

    And his band only cost like $75 because he kept saying he wasn't sure that he'd wear it all the time. I had the best ring ever picked out for $1300, but I wasn't dropping that kind of money for a ring he thought he wouldn't wear. He wears it ring all the time though (didn't bother him as much as he thought).

    We went on a vacation one year to Mexico and bought some handmade bracelets and he wore that thing until it fell off...literally. But that's the only other piece of jewelry he's ever really worn.

    See that's where I'm torn! He hasn't ever worn anything else, other than watches.
    And I'm not paying more than 150 max for anything because I know there is no guarantee he will wear or like it

    What about a nice pocket knife?

    MH always has a pocket knife on him (for work). He has a growing interest in them and collection of them.

    I also gave him once a custom order "coin". It has a phrase of special meaning to us on one side and the first initial to our last name on the other side. It's kind of like a "rubbing coin". IDK if that's something that is a well known "thing". It's about the size of a 50 cent piece...

    I also second a PP's suggestion of a pocket watch. MH wants one, but just to pass down. I don't think he'd carry it.

  • He doesn't wear any. He doesn't even want to wear a wedding ring when we get married, but I told him it wasn't an option.

    If he's into watches, I'd do that. Bracelets and necklaces aren't "man" pieces, IMO.

    This.  I knew a bunch of guys that had the initial rings back when we were in HS in the 80's and we thought they were so cool!  Just not my thing nowadays.  I would do a really nice watch.
