After getting so much help from many posters here, I ended up getting the ring from White Flash. It took a few phone calls to White Flash from Vienna but at the end, Leslie definitely helped make this transaction very painless.

Anyway, I started with the inquiries here.

My girlfriend came over to Vienna just after Christmas. I proposed while we were on the Riesenrad. The night was beautiful, and everything was right. A big thumps-up for the kind people here to help me on the ring purchase, which she absolutely loved.

Didn''t get pictures of the ring take but here is the one that White Flash sent me after the order had been fianlized. It''s a 0.75ct, G, SI1, ACA Hearts and Arrows, on a 4-prong white gold Tiffany-style setting. May not be prettiest out there but definitely a ring that changed everything for me. :)

Thanks a lot all!

Forgot to add... I had to guess the ring size (4.5). Turned out I was *almost* right. Her size was somewhere in between 4.5 and 4 so it fits reasonably well on her finger. Whew!

Post mortem

First of all, I must thank everyone here for the congratulations, and most importantly the education and help I got here.

I chose the simple setting for a couple of reasons. One of the things was the potential need for re-sizing as it was essentially a blind guess on the size. But most importantly, we both like minimalistic and clean look for most things (decor, assessories, etc) so the decision was rather easy. She absolutely loved the ring. It was the first ring she ever owned. She loved the fact that "the moment" happened, more so than the ring, I must say.

Anyway, I will make a short trip back to Canada in a few weeks. Hopefully I'll manage to take some pictures then and upload them.
