Questions and answers
- Which is better for a wedding band?
- The Manly Bands Legend. It is 8mm, comfort fit, hypoallergenic, and backed by a lifetime limited warranty. The Metallo is an 18mm fashion ring with no stated warranty.
- Which lasts longer?
- The Legend's zirconium resists scratches and won't rust, and the warranty covers defects. The Metallo's ion plating can wear with daily use, and stainless steel is softer against scratches.
- Is the Metallo worth it over the Legend?
- Only if you want a very wide, cheap statement ring. The Legend costs more but adds real wood, a licensed design, hypoallergenic metal, and a warranty.
- Will the wood inlay hold up?
- The redwood sits in a sleeve under a matte zirconium shell, but wood can vary in color and grain. Keep it out of prolonged water and harsh chemicals.
- Which fits a wider finger better?
- Both are comfort fit. The Metallo's 18mm width covers more of the finger; the Legend's 8mm is closer to a standard men's band.
- Does the Metallo come with a warranty?
- No warranty is listed for the Metallo. The Legend includes a lifetime limited warranty plus free return and exchange policies.
