glitterbug, Loriken214, somehowcollide, SeattleSweetheart, blingaddict, dani, honey22, geckodani, vespergirl, Tacori E-ring, julesbeth, Ellen, joflier, SanDiegoLady, kcoursolle, goobear78, Snooper, mela lu: Thank you guys sooooo much for the compliments!!! I was only able to put this together with all the advice from the board and all your inspiration pictures!

honey22, Snooper: I think I will wait a bit to make sure it''s really too big. I''d hate to have to part with my ring for a few days for resizing! I should probably call Leon and see what he says. I''ve heard that a lot of jeweler have a laser welder that can do it very quickly, seamlessly and while I wait. I''m just not sure if the thinness of the band will be an issue.

goobear78: I only talked to Leon once. I basically told him I wanted the classic solitaire, set low and done very delicately and that was it. He took it from there. If you don''t mind leaving all the little details up to him, it''s a very simple process - send him the diamond and wait for it to be ready (the wait was agonizing though - he took a couple weeks longer than quoted). I trusted him and let him do his thing - I didn''t even know what the width of the band was going to be! I think he gets a little upset when he feels micromanaged so I guess it depends on how involved you want to be. i wish you good luck!!!

rocksolid: I''m so jealous that you get to have double claw prongs! Mine wasn''t big enough for them. I can''t wait to see yours!!!

Beautiful ring!! Just be sure and try on your band before you size it. My solitaire fits totally different when i have a band on.

Your ring is just beautiful! That thin band really makes that gorgeous diamond pop. And speaking of, mind giving us noseykins some details on the stone (and band)?

Congratulations!
Ellen, it''s a stone much like yours - Isee2
Boy, you aren''t kidding. They are numbers twins!

And beaglemom raises a good point about trying it on with your band before sizing. My Ering fits much looser without my band on also.

Hi Lisa,

Its a beautiful Ring!

I just wanted to thank you for bringing my sanity back. I''ve been waiting for my ring to finish and your ring is pretty close to what i ordered (slightly different setting..). Just seeing a couple pics, settled my worries and such. I too, ordered and Isee2 and am looking foward to seeing it very soon.

BTW, who is this "leon"?

I am so overwhelmed by all your comments. Thank you guys for letting me share my pictures with you. Only Pricescopers would understand the need to take millions of pictures of a ring.

I just measured it against a paper printout of a ruler. I THINK it''s just 1mm but that can''t possibly be right, can it? I think 1.6mm was the smallest I''ve heard of Leon doing?

Beautiful ring, Lisa! Got a soft spot for those ISEE2s!

I agree with others here, pair your ring up with a nice wedding band to slow down the spinning.
