I have been wearing the same, wide (probably .75 inch), silver band for 15+ years. It is one of those double rings where one slides on the top of the other. I love the thing. I picked it up one day from a street vendor in Chapel Hill, NC, when I was visiting a girlfriend. A large percentage of people think it indicates I am married, due to where it is located. It doesn't look like a wedding ring to me.
It is thick and heavy, which I really like. I like heavy watches and shoes, as well. I am sure I would get a wide band if TF and I married.
