Yes.  I work in IT and do a lot of hardware work.  The diamond sticks out and gets caught.  I used to have to take it off when working in enclosed computer cases, and eventually just quit wearing it.  I put it on for special occasions, but normally just wear the band.

Many will keep the rock in a safe and only bring it out for special occasions (because accidentally damaging a ring is very easy to do and once a big diamond goes missing it can be incredibly difficult to repair the ring even if it's insured).

Neither of us wear any type of ring.  Even a small ring is still a hazard in any working or active environment.  What is the function of the ring?  To brand you as married?  You can tell them that.  Its primary function is when people are young and MIGHT be available.  Not years later.

Definitely. My sister is a nurse so to spare herself the aggravation with gloves, she only wears a very simple band.

I'm a woman who chooses to wear a band. I have a beautiful ring in a gorgeous setting but didn't like the way it snagged on things. I'm not a huge fan of flashy jewelry anyway and now I just wear a simple platinum  band.
