So, there is a small chance that titanium will be better. Personally I prefer the colour of titanium over that of steel, and...I stick to titanium and .9999 platinum. For the most part, proper inplant grade steel won't cause any more problems, [but] if you're scared it will, go with titanium, Implantanium, platinum, 18ct palladium/gold with gold, niobium or PTFE/PMMA."

I agree with everything you said here. Titanium is a more attractive metal and it’s much tougher than steal. That said I’ve been buying titanium jewelry ever since I looked at mens titanium wedding bands for my then soon to be husband. Ever since then I’ve gotten my hands on several rings and some bracelets too. I’m now turning to the multicolored titanium jewelry for necklaces and the like. I think overall titanium offers more options up to people who like jewelry and is far more affordable than gold and plantinum.

I have owned titanium and surgical steel rings. The titanium ring has stood up to several hours of scuba diving very well, with no deterioration in the color or ring. My steel ring, however has lost its luster and seems to be changing colors. I bought my ring at the Titanium Ring Shop and would buy titanium rings from them again.
