I like them both, but not sure which one is better.  How do you think? The center diamond will be 0.80 carat round.

I really don't think one is better than the other at all, they are both really, really pretty but I get why you have questions it can be SO hard to decide...my vote is for the sleek line I am partial to it and I think it will look very elegant and polished with your center stone.
That being said you really can't go wrong with either they will both make your stone pop and both be gorgeous as a ring.
Please keep us posted on what you decide

I like the cathedral. The band is very dainty. I don't think you can go wrong with either. Is your jewelry in general more delicate or streamlined?

Both are beautiful, you can't go wrong here!  I have a slight preference for the first one.  I think both would look fantastic with a .8 stone.

John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880

"There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things....

The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

I prefer the sleek line myself, but they are both very beautiful settings!

Depends how you define better .  If you want a thinner more diamond/less metal look than I would think
the petite open cathedral would be better.  If you like the sleek lines of the metal and prefer a little more
substantial band then I would think the sleek line pave would be better.  Cant go wrong with either.  Which
do I prefer...the petite open cathedral.  Its a close call though and I could change my mind after trying them
on.  What size ring do you wear?  If I had a larger finger I would probably go with the sleek line.



~~~Thanks to PS, my wants far exceed my budget!~~~

My finger size is 4.5 and my hands are small. Sleek line is 2.5mm wide and petite open is only 1.5mm. It would be best if I could find other people's pics with the two rings. Looks like they are both very popular.

my guess is that, with small hands, you'd probably prefer the thinner petite cathedral. is there any chance that you could go to a B&M store near you and try on different width bands? obviously they wouldn't be the exact same, but you might be able to get a feel for which suits you better.

This is a good idea, always better to see in person. Though imho both are thin and would set the stone off nicely (the taper on the sl would help too).
