Budget is tight with a wedding and a move coming up, so a solid ring that won’t fall apart is the goal. Daily life includes tools, cycling, and lots of hand washing. Metal allergies are unknown, so hypoallergenic would be safer. Not chasing shine—more into a matte look that hides scuffs. Width is still a question: 5mm looks subtle, 6mm looks balanced. Comfort-fit sounds good, but not sure if it really matters. Resizing later could be needed if weight changes happen.

A similar budget situation here, and going matte saved money on upkeep. A 5.5mm comfort-fit felt light enough for typing but still visible in photos. Swapping to a silicone ring for yard work kept the main band in good shape. Weekly rinse with mild soap was all it needed. Photos in natural light helped more than store lighting—made it obvious which width suited the hand. Sharing in case that simple approach helps you decide.
