I was helping a neighbor with his boat trailer and spring replacement and the dumb SOB lowered "dumped" the jack and my ring finger was in a crucial spot and got mashed (not broken) and my finger swelled so much the wife had to cut my gold wedding ring of 45 years off with a Dremel. A jeweler easily fixed it.

I would NOT go titanium because you are an active guy and what my wife did wouldn't work with titanium; you're not cutting one off with a dremel.

"Rings made of gold or silver are easily removed with basic ring cutters; in contrast, titanium rings require specialist cutting equipment such as dental saws, drills or diamond tipped saws. These techniques can take up to 15 min to divide the ring, can burn the underlying skin, require an assistant to provide irrigation, and may not be available within all hospitals at all times."
