my wife just went to Tiffany's to check out settings (we only bought the stone, Tiffany's won't set someone else's stone, but we can decide on design). for a set stone with tiny baguetes, Tiffany was more than double the price I paid. both stones were the same color, but mine was IF, Internally Flaw... |

I own a Rolex watch. Actually two, but the gold one never comes out of the safe deposit. Does it keep good time? Yes. Any better than a Swatch? No. I could buy another watch that is at least as good if not better for less than half the price, and still be a quality Swiss watch, even a name brand. I ... |
