Shown in centimetres (inches) and US sizesMeasure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
With a ring that fits (most accurate)
- Lay a ring you wear on that finger on the ruler and measure the inside diameter, edge to edge, in millimetres.
- Find that diameter in the table below.
With a strip of paper
- Wrap the strip around the base of your finger: it must still slide over the knuckle.
- Mark where it overlaps, lay it flat and measure it in millimetres: that is the circumference. Find it in the table below.
Measure at the end of the day, when fingers are slightly larger.
No ruler? A bank card is 8.6 cm (3.4") long: count how many fit along your strip.

| 16 | 77 | Z+6 | 24.6 mm (0.97") | 77.3 mm (3.04") |
Half sizes sit halfway between two rows (about 0.4 mm of diameter).
Good to know: measure at the end of the day, when fingers are slightly larger. Wide bands (8 mm and more) feel tighter: if you are between two sizes, take the larger one. Tungsten carbide cannot be resized, so it is worth measuring twice.

Black on the outside, a thin blue line, and more blue only you see.
Atlas did not choose the weight; he chose to hold it. The ring you choose to wear every day should be up to the same job. This wide 8mm tungsten carbide band is brushed black with beveled edges, with a thin blue groove running through the center and the same blue on the inside, where only you see it. Quiet black first, color second. US sizes 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12.
- Fine in the shower, the gym and the sea
- Blue groove plus a blue interior
- Brushed black, 8mm wide
Details & specs
The band is tungsten carbide, one of the hardest materials used in men's rings, which is why it holds its finish far better than softer metals, and it does not rust. The outer surface is brushed black with beveled edges, so light rolls off the sides instead of flashing. The black and the blue are plated finishes, and we say so.
A single blue groove runs around the center of the band. Inside, the ring carries the same blue with a TUNGSTEN CARBIDE marking. At 8mm wide it sits broad across the finger, and the smooth inner surface keeps it comfortable through a long day of work, driving and everything in between.
How to wear it
Wear it alone on the ring finger as a wedding or commitment band, or on the index finger with a black or steel watch for a matched look. The brushed black suits denim, a white tee and dark outerwear, and it stays understated under a shirt cuff at work. Keep other rings minimal so the blue line stays the detail people notice.
Choosing your size
Offered in US sizes 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12. This is an 8mm band, so it covers more of the finger than a thin ring; if you are between sizes or your knuckle is larger than the base of the finger, take the larger size. Tungsten carbide cannot be resized, so measure an existing ring of similar width before ordering.
Why this piece
Built for everyday hands
Tungsten carbide is very hard and highly scratch-resistant, so the brushed black keeps its look through daily wear.
Two-tone without noise
Black brushed metal, one blue line and a blue interior. The contrast is there when you look for it.

Questions
Can the blue groove ring stay on in the sea and at the gym?
Yes, tungsten carbide does not rust, so salt water and sweat are fine. Dry it with a soft cloth to restore the brushed black look.
Can the black and blue groove ring be a wedding band?
Yes. Worn alone on the ring finger it works as a wedding or commitment band, and it stays understated under a shirt cuff at work.
How do I size the 8mm blue groove ring?
Measure an existing ring of similar width on the same finger, and take the larger size if you are between two. Tungsten carbide cannot be resized.
Is there a size 7 or 10?
No. This ring comes in US 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12 only. If you wear a 10, take 11: an 8mm band sits close on the finger, so the larger size passes the knuckle more easily.
What is written inside the ring?
A TUNGSTEN CARBIDE marking, on a blue interior that matches the groove. It sits on the inside, so only you see it.
How much blue shows when I wear it?
Only a thin line. The groove runs around the center of the brushed black band; the rest of the blue is on the inside, against your finger.
Is tungsten heavier than titanium?
Yes, much heavier. Tungsten carbide is roughly three times as dense as titanium, so this 8mm band feels solid on the hand where a titanium ring feels almost weightless.
Does brushed black show fingerprints?
Less than a mirror finish. The brushed black is matte and low-glare, so fingerprints and fine marks show less than on a polished ring.
