A black tungsten band at 8mm with a polished silver stripe running through the centre, the contrast sharp and precisely defined. Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest metals used in jewellery: it won’t bend, deform, or tarnish. A men’s wedding ring for buyers who chose black and wanted the ring to have one specific, clean detail that justifies the choice: engravable, dispatched same day.
What makes this ring worth it?
Walk into a jeweller and you’ll find versions of our rings for 3–4 times the price. The difference isn’t the ring — it’s the overheads. We work directly with the craftspeople who make them and carry the stock ourselves, which is how we can sell a ring that genuinely lasts for a fraction of high street prices.
Traditional gold and silver scratch, bend and lose their shine. That doesn’t happen here. We use a high end process called PVD plating which is the same process used on high end watches to keep your ring looking great.

Black and Silver, Precisely Cut
The Spry is a black tungsten band with a single polished silver stripe through the centre. The black covers the majority of the surface; the silver stripe is the detail. The boundary between the two is clean.
It works for buyers who wanted a black ring that was not entirely plain, but did not want the two-tone finish to dominate the ring. The Spry gives the black ring a visual reason without changing what the ring fundamentally is.
At 8mm the silver stripe reads as a deliberate element within the wider black surface. The proportions work.
Both the black and silver surfaces on the Spry are PVD finishes on a tungsten carbide base. Tungsten holds both finishes at the boundary where they meet, keeping the definition between the two colours intact through daily wear.
Tungsten cannot be resized, but Newman Bands offers a free size exchange if the fit is not right first time.
Newman Bands has shipped black and silver tungsten bands across the range and the pattern from buyers is consistent: the contrast between the two finishes reads sharper in person than the product images show. The Spry is 8mm, which gives the bevelled silver edges enough surface to define the boundary cleanly against the black face. For a two-tone ring, the dominant pre-purchase question is whether the contrast holds its definition over time. Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest metals used in jewellery and does not deform or tarnish, which means the boundary between the finishes stays precisely where it starts.
