Is this ring solid 14K gold or plated?

It is 14K gold, per the product details. That is solid gold alloy, not a plating over base metal, so it will not flake or wear through to a different color.

How does a cigar band fit compared with a thin ring?

A wide band covers more of the finger and tends to feel snugger than a narrow ring in the same size. Many jewelers suggest going up a half size on wide bands, and a jeweler can resize it.

Can it be worn as a wedding band?

Yes. The plain, stone-free band works as a wedding ring, and its width gives it a heavier look than a standard narrow band.

Will the polished finish scratch?

Gold is a soft metal, so a polished band will pick up fine scratches with daily wear. They blend into the surface over time and can be polished out by a jeweler.

The flat outer face of a cigar band is a common place for engraving, but check with the seller or a jeweler before buying, since the band's width and thickness affect what fits.

Is it suitable for daily wear?

Yes. Solid 14K gold holds up to everyday use better than plated or hollow rings, though you should still take it off for heavy lifting or harsh chemicals.
