What is the ruling on men wearing silver in any form? I hope for a detailed explanation of this.

A silver ring is permissible for both men and women. However, a gold ring is not permissible except for women specifically; gold is for women only. As for silver, it is permissible for a man to have a silver ring. However, vessels are not allowed; vessels are not permissible for men or women, whether made of gold or silver.

And watches and pens. For a man, no. As for a woman, there is no harm. Yes.
