Metals that are resistant to acidic CF sweat

Hey all, it's engagement time! I need to know some metals that are sturdy enough to stand up against a CFer's acid sweat. My GF (31, CF) mentioned a while ago that titanium is pretty durable. Do any of you know of other metals that last long when worn as jewelry?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

Gold i guess... It seems pretty sturdy to me! I never had a problem wearing gold jewellery. I always ruin anything silver though...

I'm with Bigstar, my wedding ring is gold and I've never had a problem with it. I've worn it for almost 7 years now with no tarnishing etc.

Congrats on the upcoming engagement! Very exciting! :)

My brain turned this around into the right order automatically and so it read:
Acidic CF sweat that is resistant to Metals??

And I was going to say NO, CF sweat especially, starts to spin violently in circles when Odin strikes his electric guitar.

OT. Titanium, platinum, tungsten carbide, stainless steel.
OT2. Nooo it's a trap! (congrats)
